In this note we give a characterization of taut Riemannian foliations using the transverse divergence. This result turns out to be a convenient tool in the case of some standard examples. Furthermore, we show that a classical tautness…
We pursue the study of local index theory for operators of Fourier-integral type associated to non-proper and non-isometric actions of Lie groupoids, initiated in a previous work. We introduce the notion of geometric cocycles for Lie…
Riemann Poisson manifolds were introduced by the author in [1] and studied in more details in [2]. K\"ahler-Riemann foliations form an interesting subset of the Riemannian foliations with remarkable properties (see [3]). In this paper we…
We prove a Duistermaat-Guillemin trace formula for transversally elliptic operators on a compact foliated manifold.
In this paper we present some new results on the tautness of Riemannian foliations in their historical context. The first part of the paper gives a short history of the problem. For a closed manifold, the tautness of a Riemannian foliation…
We prove a cyclic Lefschetz formula for foliations. To this end, we define a notion of equivariant cyclic cohomology and show that its expected pairing with K-theory is well defined. This enables to associate to any invariant transverse…
We prove a localization formula for a "holomorphic equivariant cohomology" attached to the Atiyah algebroid of an equivariant holomorphic vector bundle. This generalizes Feng-Ma, Carrell-Liebermann, Baum-Bott and K. Liu's localization…
We prove an Atiyah-Bott-Berline-Vergne type localization formula for Killing foliations in the context of equivariant basic cohomology. As an application, we localize some Chern-Simons type invariants, for example the volume of Sasakian…
In this paper, we use the methods of subriemannian geometry to study the dual foliation of the singular Riemannian foliation induced by isometric Lie group actions on a complete Riemannian manifold M. We show that under some conditions, the…
The aim of this paper is to describe how to obtain residue-type formulas for push-forwards in equivariant cohomology, using the Jeffrey-Kirwan nonabelian localization theorem and the related result of Guillemin and Kalkman. This paper…
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…
Let $\Gamma$ be a finite group acting linearly on a vector space $V$. We compute the Lie algebra cohomology of the Lie algebra of $\Gamma$-invariant formal vector fields on $V$. We use this computation to define characteristic classes for…
Haefliger cohomology characterizes taut foliated manifolds by Haefliger's theorem. We show that Haefliger cohomology characterizes strongly tense foliated manifolds, namely, foliated manifolds which admit a Riemannian metric such that the…
Given a proper, cocompact action of a Lie groupoid, we define a higher index pairing between invariant elliptic differential operators and smooth groupoid cohomology classes. We prove a cohomological index formula for this pairing by…
We review some applications of noncommutative geometry to the study of transverse geometry of Riemannian foliations and discuss open problems.
We present examples of foliations with infinite dimensional basic symplectic and com- plex cohomologies, along with a general sufficient condition for such phenomena. This puts re- strictions on possible generalizations of several…
We prove a duality result for the analytic cohomology of Lie groups over non-archimedean fields acting on locally convex vector spaces.
A transitive compact foliated space is shown to be a Riemannian foliation if and only if it is locally connected, finite dimensional, strongly equicontinuous and quasi-analytic, and the closure of its holonomy pseudogroup is quasi-analytic.
The aim of this paper is to study the cohomology theory of Reynolds Lie algebras equipped with derivations and to explore related applications. We begin by introducing the concept of Reynolds LieDer pairs. Subsequently, we construct the…
This is a survey on the equivariant cohomology of Lie group actions on manifolds, from the point of view of de Rham theory. Emphasis is put on the notion of equivariant formality, as well as on applications to ordinary cohomology and to…
