contents In this paper, we develop a general homogenization theory for elliptic equations with coefficients that oscillate periodically at infinitely many scales $\varepsilon = (\varepsilon_1, \varepsilon_2, \cdots) \in (0,1)^\infty$, with $\varepsilon_1>\varepsilon_2>\cdots$ and $\varepsilon_n \to 0$ as $n \to \infty$. Such problems arise naturally in the study of fractal materials and diffusion in fluids. Under suitable scale-separation assumptions, we prove a qualitative homogenization theorem and obtain optimal $L^2$ convergence rates. We also establish interior and boundary Lipschitz estimates that are uniform in $\varepsilon$.
