We study the Poisson equation in a perforated domain with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. The size of the perforations is denoted by ε > 0, and is proportional to the distance between neighbouring perforations. In the periodic case, the homogenized problem (obtained in the limit ε → 0) is well understood (see (Rocky Mountain J. Math. 10 (1980) 125–140)). We extend these results to a non-periodic case which is defined as a localized deformation of the periodic setting. We propose geometric assumptions that make precise this setting, and we prove results which extend those of the periodic case: existence of a corrector, convergence to the homogenized problem, and two-scale expansion.

We provide an estimate of the energy of the solutions to the Poisson equation with constant data and Dirichlet boundary conditions in a convex domain Ω ⊂ Rn. This estimate is obtained by restricting the variational formulation of the problem to the space of functions depending only on the distance from the boundary of Ω. The main tool in the proof is an isoperimetric inequality for convex domains, which is a consequence of the Brunn-Minkowski theorem.
