For a Lie group $G$ and a closed Lie subgroup $H\subset G$, it is well known that the coset space $G/H$ can be equipped with the structure of a manifold homogeneous under $G$ and that any $G$-homogeneous manifold is isomorphic to one of…
We compute the full holonomy group of compact Lorentzian manifolds with parallel Weyl tensor, which are neither conformally flat nor locally symmetric, for the case where the fundamental group is contained in a distinguished subgroup G of…
Let X be a compact complex surface with a real foliation. If all leaves are compact complex curves, the foliation must be holomorphic.
Let $M$ be a simply connected pseudo-Riemannian homogeneous space of finite volume with isometry group $G$. We show that $M$ is compact and that the solvable radical of $G$ is abelian and the Levi factor is a compact semisimple Lie group…
In this paper, we study homogeneous convex foliations on the complex projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2$. A foliation is called convex if all of its leaves, except straight lines, have no inflection points, and such foliations form a Zariski…
We define a general procedure extending surgery to manifolds with foliation or Haefliger structure. We find a single obstruction to foliation surgery along an attaching sphere. When unobstructed, the surgery can be chosen to preserve…
We define the compact universal cover of a compact, metrizable connected space (i.e. a continuum) X to be the inverse limit of all continua that regularly cover X. We show that such covers do indeed form an inverse system with bonding maps…
In this paper, we generalize the Heintze-Kobayashi-Wolf theory to homogeneous Finsler geometry, by proving two main theorems. First, any connected negatively curved homogeneous Finsler manifold is isometric to a Lie group endowed with a…
In this work, we study Lie groupoids equipped with multiplicative foliations and the corresponding infinitesimal data. We determine the infinitesimal counterpart of a multiplicative foliation in terms of its core and sides together with a…
We consider all connected and simply connected 7-dimensional Lie groups whose Lie algebras have nilradical $\g_{5,2} = \s \{X_1, X_2, X_3, X_4, X_5 \colon [X_1, X_2] = X_4, [X_1, X_3] = X_5\}$ of Dixmier. First, we give a geometric…
The aim of this paper is to classify compact, simply connected K\"ahler manifolds which admit totally geodesic, holomorphic complex homothetic foliation by curves.
In this article, we develop a systematic cohomological framework for the study of the rigidity of nilpotent Lie foliations with respect to solvable deformations. We introduce the deformation complex associated to a pair of Lie algebras…
A holomorphic foliation $\mathscr{F}$ on a compact complex manifold $M$ is said to be an $\mathscr{L}$-foliation if there exists an action of a complex Lie group $G$ such that the generic leaf of $\mathscr{F}$ coincides with the generic…
Let K be a connected Lie group and M a Hamiltonian K-manifold. In this paper, we introduce the notion of convexity of M. It implies that the momentum image is convex, the moment map has connected fibers, and the total moment map is open…
Compact K\"ahler solvmanifolds are classified up to biholomorphism. A proof of a conjecture Benson and Gordon, that completely solvable compact K\"ahler solvmanifolds are tori is deduced from this. The main ingredient in the proof is a…
We study homogeneous Lorentzian manifolds $M = G/L$ of a connected reductive Lie group $G$ modulo a connected reductive subgroup $L$, under the assumption that $M$ is (almost) $G$-effective and the isotropy representation is totally…
In this paper we consider a diffeomorphism $f$ of a compact manifold $M$ which contracts an invariant foliation $W$ with smooth leaves. If the differential of $f$ on $TW$ has narrow band spectrum, there exist coordinates $H _x:W_x\to T_xW$…
Left invariant affine structures in a Lie group $G$ are in one-to-one correspondence with left-symmetric algebras over its Lie algebra $\mathfrak g=T_eG$ (``over'' means that the commutator $[x,y]=xy-yx$ coincides with the Lie bracket;…
We study Walker manifolds, that is, pseudo-Riemannian manifolds $(M^n,g)$ admitting a null parallel distribution $\D$ of rank $r\leq\frac{n}{2}$. We show that $\D$ always integrates to a $G$-Lie foliation $\F_\D$, where $G$ is the simply…
Let $(M,\omega)$ be a symplectic manifold endowed with a agrangian foliation ${\cal L}$, it has been shown by Weinstein [16] hat the symplectic structure of $M$ defines on each leaf of ${\cal L}$, connection which curvature and torsion…
