Molino's theory

TL;DRAbstract

In Chapter 2 we introduced the notion of a Riemannian foliation: this is a foliation whose normal bundle is equipped with a metric which is, in an appropriate sense, invariant under transport along the leaves of the foliation. In this chapter we study some special classes of Riemannian foliations, and some ways of constructing them, with the ultimate goal of proving Molino's ‘structure theorem’.
