Volume measure for Euclidean geometry #

In this file we introduce a d-dimensional measure for n-dimensional Euclidean affine space, namely MeasureTheory.Measure.euclideanHausdorffMeasure d with notation μHE[d]. This is the suitable measure to describe area and volume in an environment of arbitrary dimension. It is characterized by the following properties:

Internally, this is defined as the MeasureTheory.Measure.hausdorffMeasure scaled by a factor. The factor is defined nonconstructively as the MeasureTheory.Measure.addHaarScalarFactor between the Hausdorff measure and the Lebesgue measure on a model Euclidean space.

TODO: show the scaling factor equals to the ratio between the volume of d-dimensional Metric.ball with Euclidean metric and with sup metric.

Euclidean Hausdorff measure μHE[d], defined as μH[d] scaled to agree with Lebesgue measure on a d-dimensional Euclidean space. While this is defined on any (e)metric space, it is intended to be used for affine space associated with an inner product space, where it agrees with the volume measure on the inner product space.

      If d₁ < d₂, then for any set s we have either μHE[d₂] s = 0, or μHE[d₁] s = ∞.

      A measurable equivalence between an affine space and its orthogonal decomposition by a base point and a direction. We show that this is measure preserving between μHE[finrank ℝ V] and volume at Submodule.measurePreserving_measurableEquivProd.

      This is similar to Submodule.orthogonalDecomposition as a MeasurableEquiv, but as the right-hand side is not with L²-norm, this is not an isometry.

        The $n$-dimensional volume of an object in an $n$-dimensional space is equal to the integral of the volume of $(n-d)$-dimensional cross-section along an orthogonal $d$-dimensional subspace. This is an analogue to MeasureTheory.Measure.prod_apply.

        The $n$-dimensional volume of an object in an $n$-dimensional space is equal to the integral of the volume of $(n-1)$-dimensional orthogonal cross-section along a line defined by a direction vector. This is a special case of AffineSubspace.euclideanHausdorffMeasure_eq_lintegral with a one-dimensional subspace.
