Abstract

Starting with the work of Preiss on the geometry of measures, the classification of uniform measures in $\mathbb{R}^d$ has remained open, except for $d = 1$ and for compactly supported measures in $d = 2$, and for codimension $1$. In this paper we study 1‑dimensional measures in $\mathbb{R}^d$ for all $d$ and classify uniform measures with connected $1$‑dimensional support, which turn out to be homogeneous measures. We provide as well a partial classification of general uniform measures of dimension $1$ in the absence of the connected support hypothesis.
