Fibration conjecture for compact Clifford–Klein forms

Let G/HG/H be a reductive homogeneous space with GG and HH connected. Let LL be a maximal compact subgroup of HH, and let KK be a maximal compact subgroup of GG containing LL. Let Γ\Gamma be a torsion-free discrete subgroup of GG acting properly discontinuously and cocompactly on G/HG/H. Then there exists a closed manifold BB of dimension pp such that

  • π1(B)\pi_1(B) is isomorphic to Γ\Gamma;
  • the universal cover of BB is contractible;
  • Γ\G/H\Gamma\backslash G/H admits a fibration over BB with fibers of the form gK/LgK/L for some gGg\in G.

Fibration conjecture. Under these hypotheses, such a manifold BB and fibration exist. This generalizes a theorem of Guérithaud–Kassel for certain quotients of SO0(d,1)\operatorname{SO}_0(d,1); the source gives no resolution of the general assertion.
