Abstract: Based on previous homogenization results for imperfect transmission problems in two-component domains with periodic microstructure, we derive quantitative estimates for the difference between the microscopic and macroscopic solution. This difference is of order ερ, where ε>0 describes the periodicity of the microstructure and ρ∈(0,12] depends on the transmission condition at the interface between the two components. The corrector estimates are proved without assuming additional regularity for the local correctors using the periodic unfolding method.
