    Abstract

    We prove that for a typical Radon measure μ in ℝd, every non-zero Radon measure is a tangent measure of μ at μ almost every point. This was already shown by T. O'Neil in his Ph.D. thesis from 1994, but we provide a different self-contained proof for this fact. Moreover, we show that this result is sharp: for any non-zero measure we construct a point in its support where the set of tangent measures does not contain all non-zero measures. We also study a concept similar to tangent measures on trees, micromeasures, and show an analogous typical property for them.
