We construct Dirac operators on foliations by applying the Bismut-Lebeau analytic localization technique to the Connes fibration over a foliation. The Laplacian of the resulting Dirac operators has better lower bound than that obtained by…

In this paper, we identify the Bott connection on the natural foliation of the projective sphere bundle of a Finsler manifold to the Chern connection of this manifold. As a consequence, the symmetrization of the Bott connection turns out to…
