Abstract

This paper deals with the homogenization of a second order parabolic operator with a large nonlinear potential and periodically oscillating coefficients of both spatial and temporal variables. Under a centering condition for the nonlinear zero-order term, we obtain the effective problem and prove a convergence result. The main feature of the homogenized equation is the appearance of a non-linear convection term.
