Study on harmonic maps on weighted Riemannian foliations.

In this paper, we introduce the weighted mixed (sectional, Ricci and scalar) curvature of a foliated (and almost-product) Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ equipped with a vector field $X$. We define several functions ($q$th Ricci type curvatures), which "interpolate" between the weighed sectional and Ricci curvatures. The n…

In this work we study some problems related with algebraic hypersurfaces invariant by foliations on weighted projective spaces $\mathbb{P}_{\mathbb{C}}(\varpi_0,...,\varpi_n)$ generalizing some results known for $\p$, as for example: the number of singularities, with multiplicities, contained in the invariant quasi-smo…

The study proves knots and certain links support taut foliations.

In this paper we generalize the basic Lichnerowicz cohomology on transversally locally conformally Kählerian foliations and we study its relation with basic Bott-Chern cohomology and $0$--th basic Dolbeault cohomology with values in the associated foliated weight bundle.

This paper extends NCFI to odd codimension and computes examples.

We show that a compact manifold admitting a Killing foliation with positive transverse curvature fibers over finite quotients of spheres or weighted complex projective spaces, provided that the singular foliation defined by the closures of the leaves has maximal dimension. This result is obtained by deforming the folia…

Let $D$ be a homogeneous bounded domain of $\mathbb{C}^n$ and $\mathcal{A}$ a set of (anti--Wick) symbols that defines a commutative algebra of Toeplitz operators on every weighted Bergman space of $D$. We prove that if $\mathcal{A}$ is rich enough, then it has an underlying geometric structure given by a Lagrangian fo…

We show injectivity of the geodesic X-ray transform on piecewise constant functions when the transform is weighted by a continuous matrix weight. The manifold is assumed to be compact and nontrapping of any dimension, and in dimension three and higher we assume a foliation condition. We make no assumption regarding con…

In this paper we extend our previous work on singularities of Monge-Ampère foliations to the case of pseudoconvex finite type domains. We are able to answer the questin of Burns on homogeneous polynomials whose logarithm satisfies the complex Monge-Ampère equation completely in dimension 2 . We are also able to general…

We study the problem of the existence and the holomorphicity of the Monge-Ampère foliation associated to a plurisubharmonic solutions of the complex homogeneous Monge-Ampère equation even at points of arbitrary degeneracy. We obtain good results for real analytic unbounded solutions. As a consequence we also provide a …

Let $X_0$ be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary endowed with a oriented, measured even dimensional foliation with purely transverse boundary. Let $X$ be the manifold with cylinder attached and extended foliation. We prove that the $L^2$--measured index of a Dirac type operator is well defined and the following…

New rigidity results for scalar curvature with stabilized conditions.

In "The Gel'fand-Kalinin-Fuks class and characteristic classes of transversely symplectic foliations", arXiv:0910.3414, (October 2009) by D.Kotschick and S.Morita, the relative Gel'fand-Kalinin-Fuks cohomology groups of the formal Hamiltonian vector fields without constant vector fields on 2n-plane were characterized b…

Study on Teichmüller rays' asymptotic behavior and distances.

Study on minimal foliations in 3D manifolds with specific conditions.

We prove the existence of commutative $C^*$-algebras of Toeplitz operators on every weighted Bergman space over the complex projective space $\mathbb{P}^n(\mathbb{C})$. The symbols that define our algebras are those that depend only on the radial part of the homogeneous coordinates. The algebras presented have an assoc…

Study foliations on Riemannian manifolds with specific vector fields, focusing on geometric properties.

We prove that any smooth foliation that admits a Riemannian foliation structure has a well-defined basic signature, and this geometrically defined invariant is actually a foliated homotopy invariant. We also show that foliated homotopic maps between Riemannian foliations induce isomorphic maps on basic Lichnerowicz coh…

The paper examines a modified Godbillon-Vey class for Reeb foliations and finds it non-trivial for some foliations.

Proves conjecture about foliations on curved spaces.

Survey on Killing foliations with technical advantages.

Simplified proof of foliation closure theorem for linear foliations.

A smooth foliation of a Riemannian manifold is metric when its leaves are locally equidistant and is homogenous when its leaves are locally orbits of a Lie group acting by isometries. Homogenous foliations are metric foliations, but metric foliations need not be homogenous foliations. We prove that a homogenous three-s…

Lie foliations with symmetric leaves are smoothly conjugate to homogeneous ones.

The paper resolves singular foliations through a series of blowups.

Study of affine and projective structures on foliated complex manifolds.

This paper compares two invariants of foliated manifolds which seem to measure the non-Hausdorffness of the leaf space: the transversal length on the fundamental group and the foliated Gromov norm on the homology. We consider foliations with the property that the set of singular simplices transverse to the foliation sa…

Uniform foliations with Reeb components on 3-manifolds.

Survey and extend work on singular foliations in diffeology.

Classifies foliations on CROSSes.

We extend the Eliashberg-Thurston theorem on approximations of taut oriented $C^2$-foliations of 3-manifolds by both positive and negative contact structures to a large class of taut oriented $C^{1,0}$-foliations, where by $C^{1,0}$ foliation, we mean a foliation with continuous tangent plane field. These $C^{1,0}$-fol…

We show that the integral foliated simplicial volume of a connected compact oriented smooth manifold with a regular foliation by circles vanishes.

A foliation of a manifold M is called R-covered if its lift to the universal cover of M has space of leaves R. We show that there are many graph manifolds which admit taut foliations, but which do not admit any R-covered foliations. On the other hand, we show that these manifolds all have finite covers admitting R-cove…

Haefliger cohomology characterizes taut foliated manifolds by Haefliger's theorem. We show that Haefliger cohomology characterizes strongly tense foliated manifolds, namely, foliated manifolds which admit a Riemannian metric such that the mean curvature form of the leaves is closed and basic. We show that Haefliger coh…

New examples of rigid Lie foliations with dense leaves found.

Kotschick and Morita recently discovered factorisations of characteristic classes of transversally symplectic foliations that yield new characteristic classes in foliated cohomology. We describe an alternative construction of such factorisations and construct examples of topologically trivial foliated vector bundles fo…
