Abstract

Given a metric measure space (X,d,m)(X,d,\mathfrak{m}) that satisfies the Riemannian Curvature Dimension condition, RCD(K,N),RCD^*(K,N), and a compact subgroup of isometries GIso(X)G \leq Iso(X) we prove that there exists a GG-invariant measure, mG,\mathfrak{m}_G, equivalent to m\mathfrak{m} such that (X,d,mG)(X,d,\mathfrak{m}_G) is still a RCD(K,N)RCD^*(K,N) space. We also obtain some applications to Lie group actions on RCD(K,N)RCD^*(K,N) spaces. We look at homogeneous spaces, symmetric spaces and obtain dimensional gaps for closed subgroups of isometries.
