Stochastic homogenization of deterministic control problems

Abstract: In this paper we study homogenization of a class of control problems in a stationary and ergodic random environment. This problem has been mostly studied in the calculus of variations setting in connection to the homogenization of the Hamilton-Jacobi equations. We extend the result to the control problems with fairly general state dynamics and macroscopically inhomogeneous Lagrangians. Moreover, our approach proves homogenization under weaker growth assumptions on the Lagrangian even in the well-studied calculus of variations setting.
