Abstract
In this article, we prove a series of integral formulae for a codimension-one foliated sub-Riemannian manifold, i.e., a Riemannian manifold equipped with a distribution , where is a foliation of and a unit vector field -orthogonal to . Our integral formulas involve th mean curvatures of , Newton transformations of the shape operator of with respect to and the curvature tensor of induced connection on and generalize some known integral formulas (due to Brito-Langevin-Rosenberg, Andrzejewski-Walczak and the author) for codimension-one foliations. We apply our formulas to sub-Riemannian manifolds with restrictions on the curvature and extrinsic geometry of a foliation.
