However, understanding the intricate properties of the effective Hamiltonian and its impact on the homogenization limit across various settings remains a substantial open problem. In this presentation, we will discuss recent developments that highlight a connection between this phenomenon and weak KAM theory on a qualitative level, as well as present some quantitative results.
