Abstract

This paper is concerned with uniform measure estimates for nodal sets of solutions in elliptic homogenization. We consider a family of second-order elliptic operators {L ε } in divergence form with rapidly oscillating and periodic coefficients. We show that the (d-1)-dimensional Hausdorff measures of the nodal sets of solutions to L ε (u ε ) = 0 in a ball in ℝ d are bounded uniformly in ε > 0. The proof relies on a uniform doubling condition and approximation of u ε by solutions of the homogenized equation.
