<br/><br/> The study deals with the homogenization of a stationary elliptic eigenvalue problem with oscillating coefficients in a domain n C !RN which is the union of two subdomains ni and 02, separated by an interface T-. The component l5 is the union of the disjoint e-periodic translated sets sl, where Y lies in the reference cell Y. On the other hand, the component f2t is connected and defined as 0\0,. Mathematically, study the asymptotic behaviour as E ➔ 0 of the problem-div(A-Vu,) = Nu-div(AV,) = Nu5<br/> <br/>A-Vu~nf, =-AVu5n5<br/> A-Vu;nf, =-eh(f- u5)<br/> uf= 0<br/> in Di,<br/> in 05<br/> on re,<br/> on f",<br/> on 8D,<br/> where € R and n; is the unitary outward normal to n:, i = 1, 2. (1)<br/><br/> The main goal is to analyze the convergence of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the heat; equation described in (1). We obtain characterizations of the eigenvalues<br/> and give homogenization results for the case. I using the periodic unfolding method. For <I, the " eigenvalue of (1) converges to the €11 ' eigenvalue of the limit problem, for the whole sequence. The same convergence result is obtained for the corresponding eigenvectors, for a subsequence only. The convergence for the whole sequence is achieved when the associated eigenvalue is simple. For the Case ) = l, we only have convergence results up to a subsequence
