Abstract

We study rates of convergence of solutions in L 2 and H 1/2 for a family of elliptic systems {L e{open}} with rapidly oscillating coefficients in Lipschitz domains with Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions. As a consequence, we obtain convergence rates for Dirichlet, Neumann, and Steklov eigenvalues of {L e{open}}. Most of our results, which rely on the recently established uniform estimates for the L 2 Dirichlet and Neumann problems in Kenig and Shen (Math Ann 350:867-917, 2011; Commun Pure Appl Math 64:1-44, 2011) are new even for smooth domains.
