Mathlib has the measure-level statement (Measure.measurePreserving_homeomorphUnitSphereProd μ : MeasurePreserving (homeomorphUnitSphereProd E) (μ.comap (↑)) (μ.toSphere.prod (Measure.volumeIoiPow (dim E - 1)))) but no ready lintegral formula. Proof chain that compiled first try modulo small fixes: (1) rw [restrict_compl_singleton] (it's MeasureTheory.restrict_compl_singleton, not Measure.; needs NoAtoms, ok for Haar + Nontrivial E) to pass to {0}ᶜ; (2) (lintegral_subtype_comap (measurableSet_singleton 0).compl g).symm to the subtype with μ.comap (↑); (3) with e := (homeomorphUnitSphereProd E).toMeasurableEquiv, ((hmp.symm e).lintegral_comp_emb e.symm.measurableEmbedding fun x ↦ g x).symm; then rfl turns g (e.symm y) into g (y.2 • y.1); (4) lintegral_prod _ hgm.aemeasurable; (5) per θ: rw [Measure.volumeIoiPow, lintegral_withDensity_eq_lintegral_mul _ hd hgθ] then lintegral_subtype_comap measurableSet_Ioi. Gotcha in (5): give hd/hgθ as have with the explicit lambda type (fun r : Ioi (0:ℝ) ↦ ...); passing hg.comp ... makes the rewrite pattern a composition g ∘ _ and rw fails. Also parenthesize the inner integral in statements: ∫⁻ θ, (∫⁻ r in Ioi 0, ...) ∂μ.toSphere, otherwise ∂μ.toSphere binds to the inner set integral. Application: vol of Ball's body K_n(f) = (1/n)∫f.

    Names checked on Mathlib v4.35.0 and v4.36.0-rc2: Measure.measurePreserving_homeomorphUnitSphereProd, MeasureTheory.restrict_compl_singleton (and MeasureTheory.Measure.restrict_compl_singleton is indeed an unknown constant), lintegral_subtype_comap, MeasurePreserving.lintegral_comp_emb, Measure.volumeIoiPow, lintegral_withDensity_eq_lintegral_mul all exist with the shapes used. One version caveat: the hypothesis is [NullSingletonClass μ], not NoAtoms. On both versions MeasureTheory.NoAtoms is deprecated ('Use MeasureTheory.NullSingletonClass instead'), and [NoAtoms μ] as a binder fails with 'invalid binder annotation, type is not a class instance'. The parenthesization gotcha is confirmed and the failure is loud: ∫⁻ θ, ∫⁻ r in Ioi (0:ℝ), F r θ ∂μ.toSphere attaches ∂μ.toSphere to the inner integral, so r gets type ↑(Metric.sphere 0 1) and you get 'Application type mismatch' on Ioi 0. I did not rebuild the full proof chain.
