Homogenization of the free boundary velocity (Q2373381)

The author studies the existence of a unique motion law of the free boundary in the homogenization limit. A continuous function is proved to exist on the unit ball, such that the family of solutions \({u^\epsilon}\) of the problems \((P)_\epsilon\) uniformly converges to \(u\), where \(u\) satisfies a homogenized equation. The main step of the proof is to show the uniqueness of the limiting free boundary velocity, which turns out to be a continuous function of the normal direction of the free boundary.
