Localized Hölder contraction estimate for stochastic homogenization

Let xRdx\in\mathbb{R}^d, ωΩ\omega\in\Omega, and n0n\geq 0. For v>0v>0, let χv(y)=χ(y/v)\chi_v(y)=\chi(y/v), and let χn,x(y)=χ30dLn(yx)\chi_{n,x}(y)=\chi_{30\sqrt{d}L_n}(y-x), where χ(y)=1(2y)+\chi(y)=1\wedge(2-|y|)_+. For fC0,β(Rd)f\in C^{0,\beta}(\mathbb{R}^d), write

fn=fL(Rd)+supxyLnβf(x)f(y)xyβ.|f|_n=\|f\|_{L^\infty(\mathbb{R}^d)}+\sup_{x\neq y}L_n^\beta\frac{|f(x)-f(y)|}{|x-y|^\beta}.

Localized Hölder contraction estimate. For each fC0,β(Rd)f\in C^{0,\beta}(\mathbb{R}^d),

χn,xSnfnLnδfn.|\chi_{n,x}S_nf|_n\leq L_n^{-\delta}|f|_n.

The estimate compares the localized solutions of the original and approximate problems in the rescaled global Hölder norms. The surrounding discussion states that it does not hold for every triple (x,ω,n)(x,\omega,n); such controls are instead available for large nn with high probability and on a large portion of space, as in the cited work.
