Homogenization of variational problems in manifold valued BV-spaces

This paper extends the result of \cite{BM} on the homogenization of integral functionals with linear growth defined for Sobolev maps taking values in a given manifold. Through a $Γ$-convergence analysis, we identify the homogenized energy in the space of functions of bounded variation. It turns out to be finite for $BV$-maps with values in the manifold. The bulk and Cantor parts of the energy involve the tangential homogenized density introduced in \cite{BM}, while the jump part involves an homogenized surface density given by a geodesic type problem on the manifold.

Homogenization of variational problems in manifold valued Sobolev spaces

Homogenization of integral functionals is studied under the constraint that admissible maps have to take their values into a given smooth manifold. The notion of tangential homogenization is defined by analogy with the tangential quasiconvexity introduced by Dacorogna, Fonseca, Maly and Trivisa \cite{DFMT}. For energies with superlinear or linear growth, a $Γ$-convergence result is established in Sobolev spaces, the homogenization problem in the space of functions of bounded variation being the object of \cite{BM}.
