On a closed, connected Riemannian manifold with a K\"ahler foliation of codimension $q=2m$, any transverse Killing $r\ (\geq 2)$-form is parallel (S. D. Jung and M. J. Jung [\ref{JJ2}], Bull. Korean Math. Soc. 49 (2012)). In this paper, we…

A smooth foliation is Riemannian when its leaves are locally equidistant. The closures of the leaves of a Riemannian foliation on a simply connected manifold, or more generally of a Killing foliation, are described by flows of transverse…
