In this article, we study the Euler class of taut foliations on the Dehn fillings of a $\mathbb{Q}$-homology solid torus. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the Euler class of a foliation transverse to the core of the filling…

We present examples of foliations with infinite dimensional basic symplectic and com- plex cohomologies, along with a general sufficient condition for such phenomena. This puts re- strictions on possible generalizations of several…

The present paper is a continuation of [13], [14] of the authors. Specifically, the paper considers the MD5-foliations associated to connected and simply connected MD5-groups such that their Lie algebras have 4-dimensional commutative…

Let $\omega$ be a differential $q$-form defining a foliation of codimension $q$ in a projective variety. In this article we study the singular locus of $\omega$ in various settings. We relate a certain type of singularities, which we name…

Let X_o be a weighted-homogeneous complete intersection germ in (R^N,o) or (C^N,o), with arbitrary singularities, possibly non-reduced. Take the foliation of the ambient space by weighted-homogeneous real arcs, \ga_s. Take a deformation of…

We apply gauge theory to study the space $F_k(M)$ of smooth codimension-$k$ framed foliations on a smooth manifold $M$. The quotient of Maurer-Cartan elements by the action of an infinite dimensional non-abelian gauge groupoid forms a…

This work deals with the topological classification of germs of singular foliations on $(\mathbb C^{2},0)$. Working in a suitable class of foliations we fix the topological invariants given by the separatrix set, the Camacho-Sad indices and…

We investigate the geometry of codimension one foliations on smooth projective varieties defined over fields of positive characteristic with an eye toward applications to the structure of codimension one holomorphic foliations on projective…

These are slightly informal lecture notes intended for graduate students about the standard local theory of holomorphic foliations and vector fields. Though the material presented here is well-known some of the proofs differs slightly from…

The paper concerns a $C^0$-rigidity result for the charcteristic foliations in symplectic geometry. A symplectic homeomorphism (in the sense of Eliashberg-Gromov) which preserves a smooth hypersurface also preserves its characteristic…

We introduce a generalization of conventional lattice gauge theory to describe fracton topological phases, which are characterized by immobile, point-like topological excitations, and sub-extensive topological degeneracy. We demonstrate a…

This thesis is concerned with equidistant foliations of Euclidean space, i.e. partitions into complete, connected, properly embedded smooth submanifolds. The space of leaves is an Alexandrov space of nonnegative curvature and the canonical…

Lindel\"of spaces are studied in any basic Topology course. However, there are other interesting covering properties with similar behaviour, such as almost Lindel\"of, weakly Lindel\"of, and quasi-Lindel\"of, that have been considered in…

We study generalized almost contact structures on odd-dimensional manifolds. We introduce a notion of integrability and show that the class of these structures is closed under symmetries of the Courant-Dorfman bracket, including T-duality.…

Given a smooth foliation on a closed manifold, basic forms are differential forms that can be expressed locally in terms of the transverse variables. The space of basic forms yields a differential complex, because the exterior derivative…

If $A$ is a Lie algebroid over a foliated manifold $(M,\mathcal{F})$, a foliation of $A$ is a Lie subalgebroid $B$ with anchor image $T\mathcal{F}$ and such that $A/B$ is locally equivalent with Lie algebroids over the slice manifolds of…

We consider the existence of symplectic and conformal symplectic codimension-one foliations on closed manifolds of dimension at least 5. Our main theorem, based on a recent result by Bertelson-Meigniez, states that in dimension at least 7…

The recent interest of geometers in the $f$-structures of K. Yano is motivated by the study of the dynamics of contact foliations, as well as their applications in theoretical physics. Weak metric $f$-structures on a smooth manifold,…

We continue our study of the geometry of Nieto's quintic threefold, looking at degenerate surfaces that correspond to certain loci and showing how they arise from a toroidal compactification of a suitable moduli space.

We first describe the local and global moduli spaces of germs of foliations defined by analytic functions in two variables with p transverse smooth branches, and with integral multiplicities (in the univalued holomorphic case) or complex…
