The precise geometric fibration conjecture for compact quotients
Let be a reductive homogeneous space, with maximal compact subgroup . Let and be the natural projections, and let denote the dimension specified in the source. Let be a torsion-free subgroup of acting properly discontinuously and cocompactly on .
Precise geometric fibration conjecture. There exists a -invariant contractible smooth submanifold of , of dimension , such that
This is presented as a more precise form of the geometric fibration conjecture. The relation between compact quotients and the proposed fibration structure remains open in general.
