Abstract

We show that Haar measure is a unique measure on a torus or more generally a solenoid X invariant under a not virtually cyclic totally irreducible ℤd-action by automorphisms of X such that at least one element of the action acts with positive entropy. We also give a corresponding theorem in the nonirreducible case. These results have applications regarding measurable factors and joinings of these algebraic ℤd-actions.
