Proof.

To every α∈Tb∗​B\alpha\in T^{\ast}_{b}B we can associate a vector field vαv_{\alpha} on FbF_{b} by

ιvα​ω=f∗​α.\iota_{v_{\alpha}}\omega=f^{\ast}\alpha.

Let ϕαt\phi_{\alpha}^{t} be the flow of vαv_{\alpha} with time t∈ℝt\in\mathbb{R}. Then we define the action θα\theta_{\alpha} of α\alpha on FbF_{b} by

θα​(p)=ϕα1​(p),\theta_{\alpha}(p)=\phi_{\alpha}^{1}(p),

where p∈Fbp\in F_{b}. One can check that such an action is well defined and transitive. Then, Λb\Lambda_{b} defined as

Λb={λ∈Tb∗B|θλ(p)=p,for allp∈Fb}\Lambda_{b}=\{\lambda\in T^{\ast}_{b}B\ |\ \theta_{\lambda}(p)=p,\ \text{for all}\ p\in F_{b}\}

is a closed discrete subgroup of Tb∗​BT^{\ast}_{b}B, i.e. a lattice. From the properness of FbF_{b} it follows that Λb\Lambda_{b} is maximal (in particular homomorphic to ℤn\mathbb{Z}^{n}) and that FbF_{b} is diffeomorphic to Tb∗​B/ΛbT^{\ast}_{b}B/\Lambda_{b}. ∎
