Abstract: We present and analyze a methodology for numerical homogenization of spatial networks, modelling e.g. diffusion processes and deformation of mechanical structures. The aim is to construct an accurate coarse model of the network. By solving decoupled problems on local subgraphs we construct a low dimensional subspace of the solution space with good approximation properties. The coarse model of the network is expressed by a Galerkin formulation and can be used to perform simulations with different source and boundary data at a low computational cost. We prove optimal convergence of the proposed method under mild assumptions on the homogeneity, connectivity, and locality of the network on the coarse scale. The theoretical findings are numerically confirmed for both scalar-valued (heat conduction) and vector-valued (structural) models.
