In this work, we establish the convergence between the homogenized solution and the original solution via a Lax equivalence theorem kind of argument. There are a few technical difficulties, including: 1) it is proven the classic choice of corrector to homogenization cannot provide the convergence result in the $H^1$ norm; 2) a boundary layer is induced due to the natural boundary condition; 3) the presence of stray field give rise to a multiscale potential problem. To keep the convergence rates near the boundary, we introduce the Neumann corrector with a high-order modification. Estimates on singular integral for disturbed functions and boundary layer are deduced, to conduct consistency analysis of stray field. Furthermore, inspired by length conservation of magnetization, we choose proper correctors in specific geometric space. These, together with a uniform $W^{1,6}$ estimate on original solution, provide the convergence rates in the $H^1$ sense.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-06-22T09:43:28.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "35B27", "65M15", "82D40" ], "keywords": [ "natural boundary condition", "homogenization", "boundary layer", "convergence rates", "lax equivalence theorem kind" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
