Divergence of a stationary random vector field can be always positive (a Weiss' phenomenon)

Boris Tsirelson

Published 2007-09-09, updated 2007-09-11Version 2

The divergence of a stationary random vector field at a given point is usually a centered (that is, zero mean) random variable. Strangely enough, it can be equal to 1 almost surely. This fact is another form of a phenomenon disclosed by B. Weiss in 1997.

Comments: 6 pages. The phenomenon is not new, -- published by B. Weiss in 1997
