Nonuniform measure rigidity

We consider an ergodic invariant measure $μ$ for a smooth action of $Z^k$, $k \ge 2$, on a $(k+1)$-dimensional manifold or for a locally free smooth action of $R^k$, $k \ge 2$ on a $(2k+1)$-dimensional manifold. We prove that if $μ$ is hyperbolic with the Lyapunov hyperplanes in general position and if one element of the action has positive entropy, then $μ$ is absolutely continuous. The main ingredient is absolute continuity of conditional measures on Lyapunov foliations which holds for a more general class of smooth actions of higher rank abelian groups.
