Contents Submersions, foliations, and metrics -- Basic constructions and examples -- Open manifolds of nonnegative curvature -- Metric foliations in space forms
Summary Riemannian manifolds, particularly those with positive or nonnegative curvature, are constructed from only a handful by means of metric fibrations or deformations thereof. This text documents some of these constructions, many of which have only appeared in journal form
