Abstract: We show that for a smooth manifold equipped with a singular Riemannian foliation, if the foliated metric has positive sectional curvature, and there exists a pre-section, that is a proper submanifold retaining all the transverse geometric information of the foliation, then the leaf space has boundary. In particular, we see that polar foliations of positively curved manifolds have leaf spaces with nonempty boundary.
