This article proves a uniform exponential decay estimate for Seiberg-Witten equations on non-compact 4-manifolds with exact symplectic ends of bounded geometry. This is an extension of the analysis for asymptotically flat almost K\"ahler…

In this paper, we prove that there exists a residual subset of contact forms $\lambda$ (if any) on a compact connected orientable manifold $M$ for which the foliation de Rham cohomology of the associated Reeb foliation $F_\lambda$ is…

For given smooth functions $(f_1,\dots,f_n)$ on $M$, Fukaya and Oh showed that the moduli space of pseudoholomorphic disks in $T^*M$ which are bounded by Lagrangian sections $\{L_i^\epsilon=\operatorname{graph}(\epsilon df_i)\}$ is…

We characterize compact eight-manifolds M which arise as internal spaces in N=1 flux compactifications of M-theory down to AdS3 using the theory of foliations, for the case when the internal part of the supersymmetry generator is everywhere…

This work concerns the problem of relating characteristic numbers of one-dimensional holomorphic foliations of P^n to those of algebraic varieties invariant by them. More precisely: if M is a connected complex manifold, a one-dimensional…

We consider the Lie group of smooth diffeomorphisms Diff$(M)$ of a simple polytope $M$ in the euclidean space. Simple polytopes are special cases of manifolds with corners. The geometric setting allows to study in particular, the subgroup…

We combine classic stability results for foliations with recent results on deformations of Lie groupoids and Lie algebroids to provide a cohomological characterization for rigidity of compact foliations on compact manifolds.

The work of Oh and Park ([OP]) on the deformation problem of coisotropic submanifolds opened the possibility of studying a large and interesting class of foliations with some explicit geometric tools. These tools assemble into the structure…

The current article studies certain problems related to complex cycles of holomorphic foliations with singularities in the complex plane. We focus on the case when polynomial differential one-form gives rise to a foliation by Riemann…

Let W be a planar 3-web defined on a neighborhood of a point M. We call "symmetry of W around M" any local diffeomorphism which fixes M and maps each foliation of W to a (not necessarily the same) foliation of W. We say that it is a simple…

Let $\cal{F}$ be a regular codimension 1 holomorphic foliation on a compact K\" ahler manifold. One assumes in addition that $\cal{F}$ possesses a transverse invariant positive current. The aim of this paper is to establish the following…

We investigate nicely embedded H--holomorphic maps into stable Hamiltonian three--manifolds. In particular we prove that such maps locally foliate and satisfy a no--first--intersection property. Using the compactness results of…

We give a Chern-Weil map for the Gel'fand-Fuks characteristic classes of Haefliger-singular foliations, those foliations defined by smooth Haefliger structures with dense regular set. Our characteristic map constructs, out of singular…

Suppose $TM\setminus \{0\}$ and $T\widetilde M\setminus\{0\}$ are slashed tangent bundles of two smooth manifolds $M$ and $\widetilde M$, respectively. In this paper we characterize those diffeomorphisms $F\colon TM\setminus\{0\} \to…

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…

In this partly expository paper we discuss conditions for the global injectivity of $C^2$ semi-algebraic local diffeomorphisms $f:\mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^n$. In case $n > 2$, we consider the foliations of $\mathbb{R}^n$ defined by the…

Given a singular foliation, we attach an "essential isotropy" group to each of its leaves, and show that its discreteness is the integrability obstruction of a natural Lie algebroid over the leaf. We show that a condition ensuring…

Diffeological and differential spaces are generalisations of smooth structures on manifolds. We show that the "intersection" of these two categories is isomorphic to Fr\"olicher spaces, another generalisation of smooth structures. We then…

For a riemannian foliation $\mathcal{F}$ on a closed manifold $M$, it is known that $\mathcal{F}$ is taut (i.e. the leaves are minimal submanifolds) if and only if the (tautness) class defined by the mean curvature form $\kappa_\mu$…

We study the compactness of sequences of diffeomorphisms in almost complex manifolds in terms of the direct images of the standard integrable structure.
