We summarize some results of geometric measure theory concerning rectifiable sets and measures. Combined with the entropic chain rule for disintegrations (Vigneaux, 2021), they account for some properties of the entropy of rectifiable measures with respect to the Hausdorff measure first studied by (Koliander et al., 2016). Then we present some recent work on stratified measures, which are convex combinations of rectifiable measures. These generalize discrete-continuous mixtures and may have a singular continuous part. Their entropy obeys a chain rule, whose conditional term is an average of the entropies of the rectifiable measures involved. We state an asymptotic equipartition property (AEP) for stratified measures that shows concentration on strata of a few "typical dimensions" and that links the conditional term of the chain rule to the volume growth of typical sequences in each stratum.
