Summary: We review recent results on the homogenization in Sobolev spaces with variable exponents. In particular, we are dealing with the \(\Gamma\)-convergence of variational functionals with rapidly oscillating coefficients, the homogenization of the Dirichlet and Neumann variational problems in strongly perforated domains, as well as double porosity type problems. The growth functions also depend on the small parameter characterizing the scale of the microstructure. The homogenization results are obtained by the method of local energy characteristics. We also consider a parabolic double porosity type problem, which is studied by combining the variational homogenization approach and the two-scale convergence method. Results are illustrated with periodic examples, and the problem of stability in homogenization is discussed.
