Abstract

Assuming Martin's axiom we show that if X is a dyadic space of weight at most continuum then every Radon measure on X admits a uniformly distributed sequence. This answers a problem posed by Mercourakis [10]. Our proof is based on an auxiliary result concerning finitely additive measures on ω and asymptotic density.
