A stationary Poisson process of k-flats in \(R^ d\) intersects any (d-k)- flat at a stationary Poisson point process. The question whether the section processes for all directions determine the primary k-flat process may be reduced to the following analytical problem: Let \(L^ d_ k\) be the Grassmanian of k-dimensional subspaces of \(R^ d\) and \(<\xi,\eta >\) be the determinant of the orthogonal projection of \(\xi \in L^ d_ k\) onto \(\eta \in L^ d_ k\). Then the question is whether the space V(k,d) of signed measures \(\mu\) on \(L^ d_ k\) satisfying \[ \int_{L^ d_ k}| <\xi,\eta >| \mu (d\xi)=0\quad for\quad all\quad \eta \in L^ d_ k \] is trivial. For \(k=1\) (and equivalently, \(k=d-1)\) a positive answer is known in a convex-geometrical, analytical, and probabilistic context. Using methods of harmonic analysis the authors show that in all other cases V(k,d) is infinite-dimensional. A similar result is obtained for higher dimensional section processes.
