dc.descriptionA stochastic flow is constructed on a frame bundle adapted to a Riemannian foliation on a compact manifold. The generator A of the resulting transition semigroup is shown to preserve the basic functions and forms, and there is an essentially unique strictly positive smooth function phi satisfying A^* phi = 0. This function is used to perturb the metric, and an application of the ergodic theorem shows that there exists a bundle-like metric for which the basic projection of the mean curvature is basic-harmonic.
