We study topology of leaves of 1-dimensional singular holomorphic foliations of Stein manifolds. We prove that for a generic foliation all leaves, except for at most countably many, are contractible, the rest are topological cylinders. We…

We give a complete classification of foliations on open contact manifolds whose leaves are contact submanifolds of the ambient manifold. The results are analogues of Haefliger's classification of foliations on open manifold.

This thesis is about the study of Lie groupoids endowed with a compatible (multiplicative) differential 1-form. The motivation and scope of the present work is to study the geometry of PDEs using the formalism of Lie groupoids and…

Let $N$ be a compact manifold with a foliation $\mathscr{F}_N$ whose leaves are compact strictly convex projective manifolds. Let $M$ be a compact manifold with a foliation $\mathscr{F}_M$ whose leaves are compact hyperbolic manifolds of…

We show that if a smooth multiplicative subbundle $S\subseteq TG$ on a groupoid $G\rr P$ is involutive and satisfies completeness conditions, then its leaf space $G/S$ inherits a groupoid structure over the space of leaves of $TP\cap S$ in…

Let $M$ be a Riemannian manifold of dimension $n+1$ with smooth boundary and $p\in \partial M$. We prove that there exists a smooth foliation around $p$ whose leaves are submanifolds of dimension $n$, constant mean curvature and its arrive…

Let $X$ be an $(n+1)$-dimensional manifold, $\Delta$ be a one-dimensional foliation on $X$, and $p: X \to X / \Delta$ be a quotient map. We will say that a leaf $\omega$ of $\Delta$ is special whenever the space of leaves $X / \Delta$ is…

We study the topological properties of the leaves of the singular foliation induced by a closed 1-form of Morse type on a compact orbifold. In particular, we establish criteria that characterize when all such leaves are compact, when they…

We study the characteristic foliation of a twisted Jacobi manifold. We show that a twisted Jacobi manifold is foliated into leaves that are, according to the parity of the dimension, endowed with a twisted contact or a twisted locally…

In this work, we find an equation that relates the Ricci curvature of a riemannian manifold $M$ and the second fundamental forms of two orthogonal foliations of complementary dimensions, $\mathcal{F}$ and $\mathcal{F}^{\bot}$, defined on…

In this work, we consider a specific space of foliations with $C^1$ leaves and H\"older holonomies of the square $M=[0,1]^2$, with some topology and we show that a generic such foliation is non-absolutely continuous, furthermore, the…

In this paper we develop a generalization of foliated manifolds in the context of metric spaces. In particular we study dendritations of surfaces that are defined as maximal atlases of compatible upper semicontinuous local decompositions…

This manuscript is an introduction to the theory of holomorphic foliations on the complex projective plane. Historically the subject has emerged from the theory of ODEs in the complex domain and various attempts to solve Hilbert's 16th…

Deformation of morphisms along leaves of foliations define the tangential foliation on the corresponding space of morphisms. We prove that codimension one fo-liations having a tangential foliation with at least one non-algebraic leaf are…

Dilation surfaces are geometric surfaces modelled after the complex plane whose structure group is generated by the groups of translations and dilations. For any dilation surface, for any direction $\theta$ in $S^1$, there exists a…

In this short note we give a complete characterization of a certain class of compact corank one Poisson manifolds, those equipped with a closed one-form defining the symplectic foliation and a closed two-form extending the symplectic form…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ denote a singular holomorphic foliation on $\mathbb{P}^2$ having a finite automorphism group $\mbox{aut}(\mathcal{F})$. Fixed the degree of $\mathcal{F}$, we determine the maximal value that $|\mbox{aut}(\mathcal{F})|$ can…

The main theorem states that any complete connected Riemannian manifold of bounded geometry can be isometrically realized as a leaf with trivial holonomy in a compact Riemannian foliated space.

Let F be a holomorphic foliation of general type on CP(2) which admits a rational first integral. We provide bounds for the degree of the first integral of F just in function of the degree, the birational invariants of F and the geometric…

We will use flat divisors, and canonically associated singular holomorphic foliations, to investigate some of the geometry of compact complex manifolds. The paper is mainly concerned with three distinct problems: the existence of…
