We allow the conductances to be unbounded and degenerate elliptic, but they need to satisfy a strong moment condition and a quantified ergodicity assumption in form of a spectral gap estimate. As a main result we obtain in dimension $d\\geq 3$ quantitative central limit theorems for the random walk in form of a Berry-Esseen estimate with speed $t^{-\\frac 1 5+\\varepsilon}$ for $d\\geq 4$ and $t^{-\\frac{1}{10}+\\varepsilon}$ for $d=3$. In addition, for $d\\geq 3$ we show near-optimal decay estimates on the semigroup associated with the environment process, which plays a central role in quantitative stochastic homogenization. This extends some recent results by Gloria, Otto and the second author to the degenerate elliptic case.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-06-28T21:45:20.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60K37", "60F05", "35B27", "35K65" ], "keywords": [ "random conductance model", "berry-esseen theorem", "degenerate conductances", "quantitative homogenization", "degenerate elliptic case" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 38, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
