Local collapsing, orbifolds, and geometrization / Bruce Kleiner, John Lott.

This volume has two papers, which can be read separately. The first paper concerns local collapsing in Riemannian geometry. We prove that a three-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold which is locally collapsed, with respect to a lower curvature bound, is a graph manifold. This theorem was stated...
