In this manuscript we present how to collapse a manifold equipped with a closed flat regular Riemannian foliation with leaves of positive dimension, while keeping the sectional curvature uniformly bounded from above and below. From this…

We describe a local model for any Singular Riemannian Foliation in a neighbourhood of a closed saturated submanifold of a regular stratum. Moreover we construct a Lie groupoid which controls the transverse geometry of the linear…

Singular Riemannian Foliations are particular types of foliations on Riemannian manifolds, in which leaves locally stay at a constant distance from each other. Singular Riemannian Foliations in round spheres play a special role, since they…

We show that a singular Riemannian foliation of codimension two on a compact simply-connected Riemannian $(n+2)$-manifold, with regular leaves homeomorphic to the $n$-torus, is given by a smooth effective $n$-torus action. This solves in…

It is proved that the isometry classes of pointed connected complete Riemannian $n$-manifolds form a Polish space, $\mathcal{M}_*^\infty(n)$, with the topology described by the $C^\infty$ convergence of manifolds. This space has a canonical…

Haefliger cohomology characterizes taut foliated manifolds by Haefliger's theorem. We show that Haefliger cohomology characterizes strongly tense foliated manifolds, namely, foliated manifolds which admit a Riemannian metric such that the…

We study tautness properties of a Riemannian foliation by investigating a symmetric 2-tensor associated with the mean curvature of the foliation. As a consequence, we prove a tautness condition for Riemannian foliations on compact manifolds…

We introduce the notion of equivariant basic cohomology for singular Riemannian foliations with transverse infinitesimal actions, and prove some elementary properties such as its invariance under homotopies. For the particular case of…

We prove that a submanifold with parallel focal structure, which is a generalization of isoparametric and equifocal submanifolds, induces a singular Riemannian foliation of the ambient space by its parallel and focal manifolds.
