In this paper, we prove that if a quasi-Fuchsian 3-manifold contains a minimal surface whose principle curvature is less than 1, then it admits a foliation such that each leaf is a surface of constant mean curvature. The key method that we…
David Gabai showed that disk decomposable knot and link complements carry taut foliations of depth one. In an arbitrary sutured 3-manifold M, such foliations F, if they exist at all, are determined up to isotopy by an associated ray [F]…
A transitive compact foliated space is shown to be a Riemannian foliation if and only if it is locally connected, finite dimensional, strongly equicontinuous and quasi-analytic, and the closure of its holonomy pseudogroup is quasi-analytic.
We study the possibility of realizing exotic smooth structures on punctured simply connected $4$-manifolds as leaves of a codimension one foliation on a compact manifold. In particular, we show the existence of uncountably many smooth open…
We prove that a polar foliation of codimension at least three in an irreducible compact symmetric space is hyperpolar, unless the symmetric space has rank one. For reducible symmetric spaces of compact type, we derive decomposition results…
Consider a complex one dimensional foliation on a complex surface near a singularity $p$. If $\mathcal{I}$ is a closed invariant set containing the singularity $p$, then $\mathcal{I}$ contains either a separatrix at $p$ or an invariant real…
We prove that every closed, smooth $n$-manifold $X$ admits a Riemannian metric together with a smooth, transversely oriented CMC foliation if and only if its Euler characteristic is zero, where by CMC foliation we mean a codimension-one,…
The space of holomorphic foliations of codimension one and degree $d\geq 2$ in $\mathbb{P}^n$ ($n\geq 3$) has an irreducible component whose general element can be written as a pullback $F^*\mathcal{F}$, where $\mathcal{F}$ is a general…
This paper constructs a foundation to analyze semi-group actions, group actions, filtrations, and decompositions in a unified manner. In fact, though the studies of decomposition can be applied to foliated spaces and group actions, they can…
In the space of polynomial maps of $\mathbb R^2$ of degree at least two, there are codimension $3$ laminations of maps with at least $3$ period doubling Cantor attractors. The leafs of the laminations are real-analytic and they have uniform…
We construct an example of a birational transformation of a rational threefold for which the first and second dynamical degrees coincide and are $>1$, but which does not preserve any holomorphic (singular) foliation. In particular, this…
It is known that, for a regular riemannian foliation on a compact manifold, the properties of its basic cohomology (non-vanishing of the top-dimensional group and Poincar\'e Duality) and the tautness of the foliation are closely related. If…
In this article we study the topological structure of the lifts to the universal of the stable and unstable foliations of $3$-dimensional Anosov flows. In particular we consider the case when these foliations do not have Hausdorff leaf…
In this paper we consider a diffeomorphism $f$ of a compact manifold $M$ which contracts an invariant foliation $W$ with smooth leaves. If the differential of $f$ on $TW$ has narrow band spectrum, there exist coordinates $H _x:W_x\to T_xW$…
We consider a partially hyperbolic C1-diffeomorphism f on a smooth compact manifold M with a uniformly compact f-invariant center foliation. We show that if the unstable bundle is one-dimensional and oriented, then the holonomy of the…
In this work, we study dominant rational maps preserving singular holomorphic codimension one foliations on projective manifolds and that exhibit non-trivial transverse dynamics.
Radial germs of holomorphic foliations in dimension two have a characteristic property: they are the only singular foliations whose reduction of singularities has no singular points. We also know that they are desingularized by a single…
In this paper, we classify codimension one foliations on adjoint varieties with most positive anti-canonical class. We show that on adjoint varieties with Picard number one, these foliations are always induced by a pencil of hyperplane…
We extend the classification of homogeneous codimension-one foliations on irreducible Riemannian symmetric spaces of noncompact type obtained by Berndt and Tamaru to the reducible case, thus completing it for all noncompact symmetric…
In this manuscript we present how to collapse a manifold equipped with a closed flat regular Riemannian foliation with leaves of positive dimension, while keeping the sectional curvature uniformly bounded from above and below. From this…
