Abstract: | We study the class of collapsed Riemanniann-manifolds with bounded sectional curvature and diameter. Our main result asserts that there is a constant, (n, d)>0, such that if a compactn-manifold has bounded curvature,
, bounded diameter, diam (M

,g)=0, where the infimum is taken over all metrics with
