Effective fronts of polytope shapes

We study the periodic homogenization of first order front propagations. Based on PDE methods, we provide a simple proof that for $n\ge 3$, the class of centrally symmetric polytopes with rational coordinates and nonempty interior is admissible as effective fronts, which was also established in [1,10] in the form of stable norms as an extension of Hedlund’s classical result [7]. Besides, we obtain the optimal convergence rate of the homogenization problem for this class.
