Some articles on divergence, great divergence:

Infrared Divergence
... In physics, an infrared divergence or infrared catastrophe is a situation in which an integral, for example a Feynman diagram, diverges because of contributions of objects with ... The infrared (IR) divergence only appears in theories with massless particles (such as photons) ... The divergence is usually in terms of particle number and not empirically troubling, in that all measurable quantities remain finite ...

Divergence - Generalizations
... The divergence of a vector field can be defined in any number of dimensions ... For any n, the divergence is a linear operator, and it satisfies the "product rule" for any scalar-valued function ... The divergence can be defined on any manifold of dimension n with a volume form (or density) e.g ...
