Stochastic homogenization of a front propagation problem with unbounded velocity

We study the homogenization of Hamilton-Jacobi equations which arise in front propagation problems in stationary ergodic media. Our results are obtained for fronts moving with possible unbounded velocity. We show, by an example, that the homogenized Hamiltonian, which always exists, may be unbounded. In this context, we show convergence results if we start with a compact initial front. On the other hand, if the media satisfies a finite range of dependence condition, we prove that the effective Hamiltonian is bounded and obtain classical homogenization in this context.
