A minimization of a curvature functional on fiber bundles
Let B be a smooth compact orientable surface without boundary and with $\chi(B) < 0.$ We examine two types of fiber bundles M over B with fiber F. The first is a principle fiber bundle with a two-torus fiber and the second is an $S\sp2$ fiber bundle with an SO(3) group action. In each case, the t...
