Ergodic measures as extreme points #

In this file we prove that a finite measure μ is an ergodic measure for a self-map f iff it is an extreme point of the set of invariant measures of f with the same total volume. We also specialize this result to probability measures.

Given a constant c ≠ ∞, an extreme point of the set of measures that are invariant under f and have total mass c is an ergodic measure.

An extreme point of the set of invariant probability measures is an ergodic measure.
