Sampling measures for Bergman spaces on the unit disk

We provide a characterization of the sampling measures for the Bergman spaces. These are the positive measures on the unit disk for which there exists a constant such that These are the continuous analogues of the sets of sampling characterized by K. Seip [13,14] and A. Schuster [12]. Our characterization is in terms of weak* limits of the Moebius transformations of the measure , and mimics the notion for sequences that sampling means being uniformly far from zero sets.
