Elliptic operators in multidimensional cylinders with frequently alternating boundary conditions along a given curve (Q2307838)

The target of the study is a selfadjoint elliptic operator posed in an infinite multidimensional cylinder with Dirichlet boundary condition replaced by a Robin condition on small sets located along a given line on the boundary. The shape and distribution of these sets are arbitrary. The characteristic linear size of these sets is a small parameter of the problem. The authors prove that the resolvent of the operator converges to the resolvent of the homogenized operator. They also establish a corrector estimate.
