1. Divorced woman is certainly not entitled to share as she is not a heir - the child certainly is.
2. Son's share can be sold - but the purchaser/alienee won't have right to joint possession if it's a dwelling residential house - nor a right to seek partition - and his share can be purchased by the other heirs/co-owners.
3. They can also file an application under Hindu SUccession Act - Section 22 and assert their right to pre-emption.

The Deceased had 1/3rd share in the property.
The deceased left behind only one son.
Therefore the said son will inherit the entire 1/3rd share of the deceased to himself.
