Let $\AAutH (X)$ be the subgroup of the group $\AutH (X)$ of holomorphic automorphisms of a normal affine algebraic surface $X$ generated by elements of flows associated with complete algebraic vector fields. Our main result is a…

Given a (singular, codimension 1) holomorphic foliation F on a complex projective manifold X, we study the group PsAut(X, F) of pseudo-automorphisms of X which preserve F ; more precisely, we seek sufficient conditions for a finite index…

We define a notion of connection in a fibre bundle that is compatible with a singular foliation of the base. Fibre bundles equipped with such connections are in plentiful supply, arising naturally for any Lie groupoid-equivariant bundle,…

We prove birational superrigidity of generic Fano fiber spaces $V/{\mathbb P}^1$, the fibers of which are Fano complete intersections of index 1 and dimension $M$ in ${\mathbb P}^{M+k}$, provided that $M\geq 2k+1$. The proof combines the…

In this paper we study the Lie groupoids which appear in foliation theory. A foliation groupoid is a Lie groupoid which integrates a foliation, or, equivalently, whose anchor map is injective. The first theorem shows that, for a Lie…

We discuss the geometry of warped foliations. After examining the Levi-Civita connection, we describe the formulae for sectional, Ricci and scalar curvatures. In the final part of this note, we present some examples.

We consider germs of holomorphic vector fields at the origin of $\mathbb{C}^3$, with non-isolated singularities that are tangent to a holomorphic foliation of codimension one. This configuration is known as a $2$-flag of foliations. The…

Let $S$ be a closed oriented surface of genus $g\geq 2$. Fix an arbitrary non-elementary representation $\rho\colon\pi_1(S)\to {\rm SL}_2(\mathbb{C})$ and consider all marked (complex) projective structures on $S$ with holonomy $\rho$. We…

We prove that a fundamental group of codimension one nonnegative Ricci curvature C2-foliation of a closed Riemannian manifold is finitely generated and almost abelian, i.e. it contains abelian subgroup of finite index. In particular, we…

We introduce the concept of morphism of pseudogroups generalizing the \'etal\'e morphisms of Haefliger. With our definition, any continuous foliated map induces a morphism between the corresponding holonomy pseudogroups. The main theorem…

In this work, we construct some irreducible components of the space of two-dimensional holomorphic foliations on $\mathbb{P}^n$ associated to some algebraic representations of the affine Lie algebra $\mathfrak{aff}(\mathbb{C})$. We give a…

Making use of the extended flux homomorphism on the group of symplectomorphisms of a closed oriented surface of genus at least 2, we introduce new characteristic classes of foliated surface bundles with symplectic, equivalently…

Let $(X, \mathcal{F})$ be a foliated surface and $G$ a finite group of automorphisms of $X$ that preserves $\mathcal{F}$. We investigate invariant loci for $G$ and obtain upper bounds for its order that depends polynomially on the Chern…

We prove the generalized Obata theorem on foliations. Let M be a complete Riemannian manifold with a foliation F of codimension $q>1$ and a bundle-like metric. Then $(M, F)$ is transversally isometric to the q-sphere of radius 1/c in…

We determine topological and algebraic conditions for a germ of holomorphic foliation $\mathcal F(X)$ induced by a generic vector field $X$ on $(\mathbb{C}^{3},0)$ to have a holomorphic first integral, i.e., a germ of holomorphic map $F…

In this article, we introduce and study singular foliations of $b^k$-type. These singular foliations formalize the properties of vector fields that are tangent to order $k$ along a submanifold $W \subset M$. Our first result is a…

We introduce and study birational invariants for foliations on projective surfaces built from the adjoint linear series of positive powers of the canonical bundle of the foliation. We apply the results in order to investigate the effective…

It is proved that the members of the Riccati hierarchy, the so-called Riccati chain equations, can be considered as particular cases of projective Riccati equations, which greatly simplifies the study of the Riccati hierarchy. This also…

We consider a family of vector fields and we assume a horizontal regularity on their derivatives. We discuss the notion of commutator showing that different definitions agree. We apply our results to the proof of a ball-box theorem and…

We describe the valuations following infinitely near singular points of a (singular) holomorphic foliation in the complex plane. They appear to be those satisfying a generalization of L'Hopital's rule. With them, we characterize dicritical…
