Abstract

We study the sigma-finite measures in the space of vector-valued distributions on the manifold X with Laplace transform Ψ(f)=exp\-θ∫Xln||f(x)||dx\, θ>0. We also consider the weak limit of Haar measures on the Cartan subgroup of the group SL(n,\Bbb R) when n tends to infinity. The measure in the limit is called \it infinite dimensional Lebesgue measure. It is invariant under the linear action of some infinite-dimensional Abelian group which is an analog of Cartan subgroup. The measure also is closely related to the Poisson--Dirichlet measures well known in combinatorics and probability theory. The only known example of the analogous asymptotical behavior of the uniform measure on the homogeneous manifold is \it classical Maxwell-Poincaré lemma which asserts that the weak limit of uniform measures on the Euclidean sphere of appropriate radius as dimension tends to infinity is the standard infinite-dimensional Gaussian measure and white noise, but in our situation all the measures are no more finite but sigma-finite.
