In this talk I will present some new results I have recently obtained about homogenization of viscous Hamilton-Jacobi equations in dimension one in stationary ergodic environments with nonconvex Hamiltonians. In the non-degenerate case, i.e., when the diffusion coefficient is strictly positive, homogenization is established for superlinear Hamiltonians of fairly general type. This closes a long standing question. When, on the other hand, the diffusion coefficient degenerates, meaning that it is zero at some points or on some regions of the real line, homogenization is proved for Hamiltonians that are additionally assumed quasiconvex in the momentum variable. Furthermore, the effective Hamiltonian is shown to be quasiconvex. This latter result is new even in the periodic setting, despite homogenization being known for quite some time.
