Abstract
In this note we discuss various questions on whether or not quotients of Riemannian manifolds by Lie groups can be the Gromov-Hausdorff limits of manifolds with certain curvature bounds. In particular we show that any quotient of a manifold by a Lie group is a limit of manifolds with a lower curvature bound; this answers a question posed by Burago, Gromov, and Perelman. On the other hand, we prove that not all such spaces are limits of manifolds with absolute curvature bounds. We also give examples of spaces with curvature ≥1 that are not limits of manifolds with curvature ≥δ > 1/4.
