Abstract

We consider foliations given by deformations dF+ϵωdF+\epsilon\omega of exact forms dFdF in C2\mathbb{C}^2 in a neighborhood of a family of cycles γ(t)F1(t)\gamma(t)\subset F^{-1}(t). In 1996 Francoise gave an algorithm for calculating the first nonzero term of the displacement function Δ\Delta along γ\gamma of such deformations. This algorithm recalls the well-known Godbillon-Vey sequences discovered in 1971 for investigation integrability of a form ω\omega. In this paper, we establish the correspondence between the two approaches and translate some results by Casale relating types of integrability for finite Godbillon-Vey sequences to the Francoise algorithm settings.
