Abstract
The -dimensional affine group over the integers is the group of all affinities on which leave the lattice invariant. yields a geometry in the classical sense of the Erlangen Program. In this paper we construct a -invariant measure on rational polyhedra in , i.e., finite unions of simplexes with rational vertices in , and prove its uniqueness. Our main tool is given by the Morelli-W{\l}odarczyk factorization of birational toric maps in blow-ups and blow-downs (solution of the weak Oda conjecture).
