The (measure-theoretical) entropy of a diffeomorphism along an expanding invariant foliation is the rate of complexity generated by the diffeomorphism along the leaves of the foliation. We prove that this number varies upper…
We study the relationship between singular holomorphic foliations in $(\mathbb{C}^{2},0)$ and their separatrices. Under mild conditions we describe a complete set of analytic invariants characterizing foliations with quasi-homogeneous…

We introduce and give normal forms for (one-dimensional) Riccati foliations (vector fields) on $\ov \bc \times \bc P(2)$ and $\ov \bc \times \ov \bc^n$. These are foliations are characterized by transversality with the generic fiber of the…
We aim to classify codimension 1 foliations $\mathscr{F}$ with canonical singularities and $\nu(K_{\mathscr{F}}) < 3$ on threefolds of general type. We prove a classification result for foliations satisfying these conditions and having…
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…
Let H be the hyperbolic space of dimension n+1. A geodesic foliation of H is given by a smooth unit vector field on H all of whose integral curves are geodesics. Each geodesic foliation of H determines an n-dimensional submanifold M of the…
We study the topological properties of the leaves of the singular foliation induced by a closed 1-form of Morse type on a compact orbifold. In particular, we establish criteria that characterize when all such leaves are compact, when they…
It is well known that, by the Reeb stability theorem, the leaf space of a Riemannian foliation with compact leaves is an orbifold. We prove that, under mild completeness conditions, the leaf space of a Killing Riemannian foliation is a…
A singular riemannian foliation F on a complete riemannian manifold M is said to admit sections if each regular point of M is contained in a complete totally geodesic immersed submanifold (a section) that meets every leaf of F orthogonally…
Consider a singular Riemannian foliation (s.r.f for short) on a compact manifold. By successive blow-ups along the strata, we construct a regular Riemannian foliation on another compact Riemannian manifold and a desingularization map that…
It is known that spherically symmetric spacetimes admit flat spacelike foliations. We point out a simple method of seeing this result via the Hamiltonian constraints of general relativity. The method yields explicit formulas for the…
In this paper, the authors consider leaf spaces of singular Riemannian foliations $\mathcal{F}$ on compact manifolds $M$ and the associated $\mathcal{F}$-basic spectrum on $M$, $spec_B(M, \mathcal{F}),$ counted with multiplicities.…
In this article, we study the geometric properties of codimension one foliations on Riemannian manifolds equipped with vector fields that are closed and conformal. Apart from its singularities, these vector fields define codimension one…
We prove that Riemannian foliations on complete contractible manifolds have a closed leaf, and that all leaves are closed if one closed leaf has a finitely generated fundamental group. Under additional topological or geometric assumptions…
The purpose of this paper is to study singular holomorphic foliations of arbitrary codimension defined by logarithmic forms on projective spaces.
Let $\mathcal{F}_d(\mathbb{P}^n)$ be the space of all singular holomorphic foliations by curves on $\mathbb{P}^n$ ($n \geq 2$) with degree $d \geq 1.$ We show that there is subset $\mathcal{S}_d(\mathbb{P}^n)$ of…
Foliations by constant mean curvature hypersurfaces provide a possibility of defining a preferred time coordinate in general relativity. In the following various conjectures are made about the existence of foliations of this kind in…
This is a book on derived foliations, that are a generalisation of classical foliations in the context of derived geometry. The text starts with the basic definitions and constructions, then explore foliated cohomology (with crystal…
