In other words, $f$ is the primitive of the divergence of a continuous vector-field. We prove that the sample paths of the Brownian sheet with $d \\geq 2$ parameters are almost surely not strongly chargeable. On the other hand, those of the fractional Brownian sheet of Hurst parameter $(H_1, \\dots, H_d)$ are shown to be almost surely strongly chargeable whenever \\[ \\frac{H_1 + \\cdots + H_d}{d} > \\frac{d - 1}{d}. \\]", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-01-27T14:40:48.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60G22", "60G17", "26A45" ], "keywords": [ "fractional brownian sheet", "regularity property", "continuous vector-field", "strongly chargeable", "hurst parameter" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
