Abstract
In this work it will be analyzed -principal cycles (compact leaves) of one dimensional singular foliations associated to a plane field defined by a unit and normal vector field in . The leaves are orthogonal to the orbits of and are the integral curves corresponding to directions of extreme normal curvature of the plane field . % It is shown that, generically, given a -principal cycle it can be make hyperbolic (the derivative of the first return of the Poincar\'e map has all eigenvalues disjoint from the unit circle) by a small deformation of the vector field . Also is shown that for a dense set of unit vector fields, with the weak -topology of Whitney, the -principal cycles are hyperbolic.
