Abstract

We study random walks in a balanced, i.i.d. random environment in Zd\mathbb Z^d for d3d\geq 3. We establish improved convergence rates for the homogenization of the Dirichlet problem associated with the corresponding non-divergence form difference operators, surpassing the O(R1)O(R^{-1}) rate, which is expected to be optimal for environments with a finite range of dependence. In particular, the improved rates are O(R3/2)O(R^{-3/2}) when d=3d=3, and O(R2logR)O(R^{-2}\log R) when d4d\geq 4.
