Abstract: Let OmegasubsetmathbbRn+1, nge2, be a 1-sided chord-arc domain, that is, a domain which satisfies interior Corkscrew and Harnack Chain conditions (these are respectively scale-invariant/quantitative versions of the openness and path-connectedness), and whose boundary partialOmega is n-dimensional Ahlfors regular. Consider L0 and L two real symmetric divergence form elliptic operators and let omegaL0, omegaL be the associated elliptic measures. We show that if omegaL0inAinfty(sigma), where sigma=Hn|partialOmega, and L is a perturbation of L0 (in the sense that the discrepancy between L0 and L satisfies certain Carleson measure condition), then omegaLinAinfty(sigma). Moreover, if L is a sufficiently small perturbation of L0, then one can preserve the reverse H"older classes, that is, if for some 1<p<infty, one has omegaL0inRHp(sigma) then omegaLinRHp(sigma). Equivalently, if the Dirichlet problem with data in Lp(sigma) is solvable for L0 then so it is for L. These results can be seen as extensions of the perturbation theorems obtained by Dahlberg, Fefferman-Kenig-Pipher, and Milakis-Pipher-Toro in more benign settings. As a consequence of our methods we can show that for any perturbation of the Laplacian (or, more in general, of any elliptic symmetric operator with Lipschitz coefficients satisfying certain Carleson condition) if its elliptic measure belongs to Ainfty(sigma) then necessarily Omega is in fact an NTA domain (and hence chord-arc) and therefore its boundary is uniformly rectifiable.
