On the diffusive behavior of isotropic diffusions in a random environment
Comptes Rendus. Mathématique, Volume 339 (2004) no. 6, pp. 429-434.

We present here results concerning the asymptotic behavior of isotropic diffusions in random environment that are small perturbations of Brownian motion. When the space dimension is three or more we prove an invariance principle as well as transience. Our methods also apply to questions of homogenization in random media.

Nous présentons ici des résultats sur le comportement asymptotique de diffusions isotropes en milieu aléatoire, qui sont de petites perturbations du mouvement brownien. Lorsque la dimension de l'espace est trois ou plus nous prouvons un principe d'invariance et la transience de la diffusion. Nos méthodes s'appliquent aussi à des problèmes d'homogénéisation en milieu aléatoire.
