| contents | We propose and rigorously analyze a finite element method for the approximation of stationary Fokker--Planck--Kolmogorov (FPK) equations subject to periodic boundary conditions in two settings: one with weakly differentiable coefficients, and one with merely essentially bounded measurable coefficients under a Cordes-type condition. These problems arise as governing equations for the invariant measure in the homogenization of nondivergence-form equations with large drifts. In particular, the Cordes setting guarantees the existence and uniqueness of a square-integrable invariant measure. We then suggest and rigorously analyze an approximation scheme for the effective diffusion matrix in both settings, based on the finite element scheme for stationary FPK problems developed in the first part. Finally, we demonstrate the performance of the methods through numerical experiments. |
