We prove that a transversely holomorphic foliation which is transverse to the fibers of a fibration, is a Seifert fibration if the set of compact leaves is not of zero measure. Similarly, we prove that a finitely generated subgroup of…
In this article, we study the geometric properties of codimension one foliations on Riemannian manifolds equipped with vector fields that are closed and conformal. Apart from its singularities, these vector fields define codimension one…
Transversally K\"ahler foliations are a generalisation of K\"ahler manifolds, appearing naturally in the complex non-K\"ahler setting. We give a self-contained proof of how the classical methods used in the proof of the Aubin-Yau theorem…
We introduce the notion of metric Lie algebras of Killing type, which are characterized by the fact that all conformal Killing symmetric tensors are sums of Killing tensors and multiples of the metric tensor. We show that if a Lie algebra…
Given a conformal metric with finite total Q-curvature, we show that the assumptions on scalar curvature sensitively govern the Q-curvature integral. Additionally, we introduce a conformal mass for such manifolds. Using such mass, we…
We prove that a Morse type codimension one holomorphic foliation is not transverse to a sphere in the complex affine space. Also we characterize the variety of contacts of a linear foliation with concentric spheres.
The formulation of quasi-local conformal Killling horizons(CKH) is extended to include rotation. This necessitates that the horizon be foliated by 2-spheres which may be distorted. Matter degrees of freedom which fall through the horizon is…
We establish a form of the h-principle for the existence of foliations quasi-complementary to a given one; the same methods also provide a proof of the classical Mather-Thurston theorem.
We prove a theorem that gives a sufficient condition for the full basic automorphism group of a complete Cartan foliation to admit a unique (finite-dimensional) Lie group structure in the category of Cartan foliations. Emphasize that the…
In this work, we study Lie groupoids equipped with multiplicative foliations and the corresponding infinitesimal data. We determine the infinitesimal counterpart of a multiplicative foliation in terms of its core and sides together with a…
We show that for a smooth manifold equipped with a singular Riemannian foliation, if the foliated metric has positive sectional curvature, and there exists a pre-section, that is a proper submanifold retaining all the transverse geometric…
We provide a generalization of the Lie algebra of conformal Killing vector fields to conformal Killing-Yano forms. A new Lie bracket for conformal Killing-Yano forms that corresponds to slightly modified Schouten-Nijenhuis bracket of…
We investigate the structure of transversely K\"ahler foliations with quasi-negative tranverse Ricci curvature. In particular, we prove a de Rham type theorem decomposition on the leaf space where we characterize each factor.
Motivated by the celebrated Schoen-Yau-Gromov-Lawson surgery theory on metrics of positive scalar curvature, we construct a double manifold associated with a minimal isoparametric hypersurface in the unit sphere. The resulting double…
This is the first in a series of papers about foliations in derived geometry. After introducing derived foliations on arbitrary derived stacks, we concentrate on quasi-smooth and rigid derived foliations on smooth complex algebraic…
We extend the following result of Cochran ``A closed $m$-quasi Einstein manifold ($M,g,X$) with $m \ne -2$ has constant scalar curvature if and only if $X$ is Killing" covering the missing accidental case $m=-2$ and generalize it showing…
In these lectures notes I discuss the Linearization Theorem for Lie groupoids, and its relation to the various classical linearization theorems for submersions, foliations and group actions. In particular, I explain in some detail the…
Motivated by questions of deformations/moduli in foliation theory, we investigate the structure of some groups of diffeomorphisms preserving a foliation. We give an example of a $C^\infty$ foliation whose diffeomorphism group is not a Lie…
We prove a generalisation of Bott's vanishing theorem for the full transverse frame holonomy groupoid of any transversely orientable foliated manifold. As a consequence we obtain a characteristic map encoding both primary and secondary…
Let $\cal{F}$ be a regular codimension 1 holomorphic foliation on a compact K\" ahler manifold. One assumes in addition that $\cal{F}$ possesses a transverse invariant positive current. The aim of this paper is to establish the following…
