Abstract:
In this article we highlight how the Fonseca and Muller blow-up technique is particularly well suited for homogenization problems. As examples we give a simple proof of the non-linear homogenization theorem for integral functionals and we prove a homogenization theorem for sets of finite perimeter.Keywords: Γ-convergence; homogenization; blow-up
