It is a well-known and elementary fact that a holomorphic function on a compact complex manifold without boundary is necessarily constant. The purpose of the present article is to investigate whether, or to what extent, a similar property…

We consider harmonic sections of a bundle over the complement of a codimension 2 submanifold in a Riemannian manifold, which can be thought of as multivalued harmonic functions. We prove a result to the effect that these are stable under…
A transversely holomorphic foliation on a compact complex manifold, exhibits a compact stable leaf if and only if the set of compact leaves is not a zero measure subset of the manifold.
Let $f:M\to M$ be a dynamically coherent partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism whose center foliation has all its leaves compact. We prove that if the unstable bundle of $f$ is one-dimensional, then the volume of center leaves must be bounded…
A singular foliation on a complete riemannian manifold M is said to be riemannian if each geodesic that is perpendicular at one point to a leaf remains perpendicular to every leaf it meets. We prove that the regular leaves are equifocal,…
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…
Some properties of Riemannian foliations on closed manifolds are generalized to compact equicontinuous foliated spaces. For instance, it is proved that all holonomy covers of the leaves are quasi-isometric to each other.
We prove that Riemannian foliations on complete contractible manifolds have a closed leaf, and that all leaves are closed if one closed leaf has a finitely generated fundamental group. Under additional topological or geometric assumptions…
We study the transversally harmonic maps between foliated Riemannian manifolds. In particular, we prove that under some curvature conditions, any transversally harmonic map is transversally totally geodesic.
Geometric conditions are given so that the leafwise reduced cohomology is of infinite dimension, specially for foliations with dense leaves on closed manifolds. The main new definition involved is the intersection number of subfoliations…
Let G be a Lie group equipped with a left-invariant semi-Riemannian metric. Let K be a semisimple subgroup of G generating a left-invariant conformal foliation F of codimension two on G. We then show that the foliation F is minimal. This…
On foliations, there are two kinds of harmonic maps, that is, transversally harmonic map and $(F,F')$-harmonic map which are equivalent when the foliation is minimal. In this paper, we study transversally f-harmonic and $(F,F')_f$-harmonic…
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,…
