Myers-Steenrod Theorems for Metric and Singular Riemannian Foliations

We prove that the group of isometries preserving a metric foliation on a closed Alexandrov space is a closed subgroup of the isometry group of . We obtain a sharp upper bound for the dimension of this subgroup and show that, when equality holds, the foliations that realize this upper bound are indu...

description We prove that the group of isometries preserving a metric foliation on a closed Alexandrov space is a closed subgroup of the isometry group of . We obtain a sharp upper bound for the dimension of this subgroup and show that, when equality holds, the foliations that realize this upper bound are induced by fiber bundles whose fibers are round spheres or projective spaces. As a corollary, singular Riemannian foliations that realize the upper bound are induced by smooth fiber bundles whose fibers are round spheres or projective spaces.

We thank Alexander Lytchak and Marco Radeschi for helpful comments on a preliminary version of this article. We thank the organizers of the IV joint meeting of RSME and SMM, and the Universidad Politécnica de Valencia, for their hospitality while this manuscript was finished. We thank the anonymous referees for suggestions that improved both clarity and accuracy. In particular, we are grateful to one of the referees for observations that helped strengthen Theorems A and B and simplify their proofs, for pointing out the argument in the proof of Proposition 2.23, and for proposing the question highlighted in Remark 1.5.
