Abstract:

Suppose $X$ is a compact Hausdorff space, and $G$ is a set of local homeomorphisms of $X$; sufficient conditions are given for the existence of a $G$-invariant Borel probability measure $P$ on $X$. The result generalizes theorems of Mycielski and Steinlage. The proof is an application of the "Loeb measure" construction from nonstandard analysis.
