Disintegration results for fractal measures and applications to Diophantine approximation

Abstract

In this paper we prove disintegration results for self-conformal measures and affinely irreducible self-similar measures. The measures appearing in the disintegration resemble self-conformal/self-similar measures for iterated function systems satisfying the strong separation condition. We use these disintegration statements to prove new results on the Diophantine properties of these measures.
