Abstract

Consider a random smooth Gaussian field G(x):FRG(x):F\to\mathbb{R}, where FF is a compact in Rd\mathbb{R}^d. We derive a formula for average area of a surface generated by the equation G(x)=0G(x)=0 and give some applications. As an auxiliary result we obtain an integral expression for area of a surface induced by zeros of a \emph{non-random} smooth field.
