Homogenization of monotone problems with uncertain coefficients

Abstract

The homogenization problem for a nonlinear elliptic equation modelling some physical phenomena set in a periodically heterogeneous medium is studied. Contrary to the usual approach, the coefficients in the equation are supposed to be uncertain functions from a given set of admissible data satisfying suitable monotonicity and continuity conditions. The problem with uncertainties is treated by means of the worst scenario method.
