Abstract:
The homogenization of Dirac system is studied. It generates memory effects. The memory (or nonlocal) kernel is described by the Fredholm integral equation. When the coefficient is independent of space, the nonlocal kernel can be characterized explicitly in terms of Young’s measure. The homogenized equation can be reformulated in the kinetic form by introducing the kinetic variable
