Randomized trial finds unique correctors for nonlinear homogenization in heterogeneous media, suggesting broader applicability.
We prove the existence and uniqueness of correctors for nonlinear homogenization problems associated with monotone operators of p -growth. The corrector equation is posed in the full space Rᵈ , as required in the non-periodic deterministic setting, and is solved within the framework of uniformly local Sobolev spaces. Our method relies on a localization procedure based on a sequence of increasing balls combined with the large mass trick, together with Caccioppoli-type estimates to establish compactness and stability. The results provide a foundation for extending deterministic homogenization theory beyond the periodic framework, ensuring that correctors exist and are uniquely defined in general heterogeneous media.
