Collapsed limits of compact Heisenberg manifolds with sub-Riemannian metrics

Kenshiro Tashiro

Vol. 329 (2024), No. 1, 165–181
Abstract

We show that every collapsed Gromov–Hausdorff limit of compact Heisenberg manifolds endowed with left-invariant Riemannian/sub-Riemannian metrics is isometric to a flat torus. We say that a sequence of sub-Riemannian manifolds collapses if their total measure with respect to Popp’s volume converges to zero.
