It is known after Jouanolou that a general holomorphic foliation of degree $\geq2$ in projective space has no algebraic leaf. We give formulas for the degrees of the subvarieties of the parameter space of one-dimensional foliations that…

For piecewise-linear maps, the phenomenon that a branch of a one-dimensional unstable manifold of a periodic solution is completely contained in its stable manifold is codimension-two. Unlike codimension-one homoclinic corners, such…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field and ${\sf G}(2,k^4)$ the Grassmannian of 2-planes in $k^4$. We associate to each 6-dimensional subspace $R$ of the space of 4x4 matrices over $k$ a closed subscheme ${\bf X}_R \subseteq {\sf…

We investigate graded retracts of polytopal algebras (essentially the homogeneous rings of affine cones over projective toric varieties) as polytopal analogues of vector spaces. In many cases we show that these retracts are again polytopal…

This paper stresses the strong link between the existence of partial holomorphic connections on the normal bundle of a foliation seen as a quotient of the ambient tangent bundle and the extendability of a foliation to an infinitesimal…

Lie algebroids, singular foliations, and Dirac structures are closely related objects. We examine the relation between their pullbacks under maps satisfying a constant rank or transversality assumption. A special case is given by blowdown…

We carry out a detailed study of the structure of domains of discontinuity $\Omega_\rho$ in $\mathbb{RP}^3$ of $\text{PSL}_4(\mathbb{R})$-Hitchin representations $\rho$. We then prove the foliated component $\Omega_\rho^1$ of $\Omega_\rho$…

The purpose of this thesis is to obtain the degree of the exceptional component of the space of holomorphic foliations of degree two and codimension one in P3. I construct a parameter space as an explicit fiber bundle over the variety of…

Let S be a ruled surface without sections of negative self-intersection. We classify the irreducible components of the moduli stack of torsion-free sheaves of rank 2 sheaves on S. We also classify the irreducible components of the…

Equivalences between conformal foliations on Euclidean $3$-space, Hermitian structures on Euclidean $4$-space, shear-free ray congruences on Minkowski $4$-space, and holomorphic foliations on complex $4$-space are explained geometrically…

We give an explicit description of the irreducible components of two-row Springer fibers in type A as closed subvarieties in certain Nakajima quiver varieties in terms of quiver representations. By taking invariants under a variety…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a codimension one holomorphic foliation in $\mathbb{P}^n$, $n\geq 2$, leaving invariant a real-analytic Levi-flat hypersurface $M$ with regular part $M^{*}$. Then every leaf of $\mathcal{F}$ outside $\overline{M^{*}}$…

In this paper, we study the Gauss map of a holomorphic codimension one foliation on the projective space $\mathbb{P}^n$, $n\ge 2$, mainly the case $n=3$. Among other things, we will investigate the case where the Gauss map is birational.

Transverse one dimensional foliations play an important role in the study of codimension one foliations. In \cite{KR2}, the authors introduced the notion of flow box decomposition of a 3-manifold $M$. This is a decomposition of $M$ that…

This article is dedicated to the study of singular codimension $1$ foliations $\mathcal{F}$ on a simplicial complete toric variety $X$ and their pullbacks by dominant rational maps $\varphi:\mathbb{P}^n\dashrightarrow X$. First, we describe…

We study the $p$-rank stratification of the moduli space $\mathcal{ASW}_{(d_1,d_2,\ldots,d_n)}$, which represents $\mathbb{Z}/p^n$-covers in characteristic $p>0$ whose $\mathbb{Z}/p^i$-subcovers have conductor $d_i$. In particular, we…

We introduce a natural structure of a semigroup (isomorphic to a factorization semigroup of the unity in the symmetric group) on the set of irreducible components of Hurwitz space of marked degree $d$ coverings of $\mathbb P^1$ of fixed…

We study the birational maps of $\mathbb{P}^3_\mathbb{C}$. More precisely we describe the irreducible components of the set of birational maps of bidegree $(3,3)$ (resp. $(3,4)$, resp. $(3,5)$).

We give a classification of pairs (F, f) where F is a holomorphic foliation on a projective surface and f is a non-invertible dominant rational map preserving F. We prove that both the map and the foliation are integrable in a suitable…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a line arrangement in the complex projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2$, having the points of multiplicity $\geq 3$ situated on two lines in $\mathcal{A}$, say $H_0$ and $H_{\infty}$. Then we show that the non-local…
