A note on the vertizontal curvature of fat bundles
Abstrak
In his unpublished notes on fat bundles, W. Ziller poses a compelling question: given a fat principal $G$-bundle $(P, g) \rightarrow (B, h)$ with $\dim G = 3$, and $g$ representing a Riemannian submersion metric ensuring that the $G$-orbits are totally geodesic, can one modify $h$ to render all vertical curvatures equal to $1$? In this note, we establish a rigidity result for fat Riemannian foliations with bounded holonomy and a specific curvature constraint. Our result addresses Ziller's question for fat fiber bundles with compact structure groups, considering connected compact total spaces under a curvature constraint that holds on various examples, such as locally symmetric spaces. Additionally, we assume that all vertizontal curvatures coincide at a point.
