Abstract

Let m and n be integers with 0<m<n and let μ be a Radon measure on ℝn with compact support. For the Hausdorff dimension, dimH, of sections of measures we have the following equality: for almost all (n − m)-dimensional linear subspaces V

provided that dimH μ > m. Here μv,a is the sliced measure and V⊥ is the orthogonal complement of V. If the (m + d)-energy of the measure μ is finite for some d>0, then for almost all (n − m)-dimensional linear subspaces V we have
