Abstract

We study random homogenization of second-order, degenerate and quasilinear Hamilton-Jacobi equations which are positively homogeneous in the gradient. Included are the equations of forced mean curvature motion and others describing geometric motions of level sets as well as a large class of viscous, nonconvex Hamilton-Jacobi equations. The main results include the first proof of qualitative stochastic homogenization for such equations. We also present quantitative error estimates which give an algebraic rate of homogenization.
