B. Wilking introduced the dual foliation associated to a metric foliation in a Riemannian manifold with nonnegative sectional curvature, and proved that when the curvature is strictly positive, the dual foliation contains a single leaf, so…

We describe transversely oriented foliations of codimension one on closed manifolds that admit simple foliated flows.

We study foliations by curves on the three-dimensional projective space with no isolated singularities, which is equivalent to assuming that the conormal sheaf is locally free. We provide a classification of the topological and algebraic…

In the paper we prove, that extrinsic curvature does not impose restrictions on the topology of a contact structure, except the obvious ones.

We prove that the infinitesimal variations of Hodge structure arising in a number of geometric situations are non-generic. In particular, we consider the case of generic hypersurfaces in complete smooth projective toric varieties, generic…

Given a projective symplectic manifold $M$ and a non-singular hypersurface $X \subset M$, the symplectic form of $M$ induces a foliation of rank 1 on $X$, called the characteristic foliation. We study the question when the characteristic…

We consider the stable ruled surface $S_1$ over an elliptic curve. There is a unique foliation on $S_1$ transverse to the fibration. The minimal self-intersection sections also define a 2-web. We prove that the 4-web defined by the…

We introduce the jet schemes of a holomorphic foliation, and thereby prove an alternate characterisation of simple singularities of codimension-$1$ foliations, independent of any normal form. This leads to an equivalent condition for the…

We show that if $f\colon X \to T$ is a surjective morphism between smooth projective varieties over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$ with geometrically integral and non-uniruled generic fiber, then $K_{X/T}$ is…

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…

For a partiallyhyperbolic diffeomorphism on a 3-manifold, we show that any invariant foliation tangent to the center-unstable (or center-stable) bundle has no compact leaves.

We show that a smooth complex projective threefold admits a holomorphic one-form without zeros if and only if the underlying real 6-manifold fibres smoothly over the circle, and we give a complete classification of all threefolds with that…

We construct a compact 6-dimensional solvmanifold endowed with a non-trivial invariant generalized K\"ahler structure and which does not admit any K\"ahler metric. This is in contrast with the case of nilmanifolds which cannot admit any…

We prove a representability theorem for moduli functors of framed torsion-free sheaves on nonsingular complex projective surfaces, using formal geometry along a curve in the surface. This has as a consequence that a certain restriction…

We prove that if q is a power of an odd prime then there is no genus-2 curve over F_q whose Jacobian has characteristic polynomial of Frobenius equal to x^4 + (2-2q)x^2 + q^2. Our proof uses the Brauer relations in a biquadratic extension…

We study holomorphic supercurves, which are motivated by supergeometry as a natural generalisation of holomorphic curves. We prove that, upon perturbing the defining equations by making them depend on a connection, the corresponding…

This is the continuation of our paper [10]. In this paper which is self contained, we would like to give a different obstruction formula to the FIRST order deformation of the pair of a smooth curve and a smooth hypersurface. This…

We prove the existence of (non compact) complex surfaces with a smooth rational curve embedded such that there does not exist any formal singular foliation along the curve. In particular, at arbitray small neighborhood of the curve, any…

Motivated by Gray's work on tube formulae for complex submanifolds of complex projective space equipped with the Fubini-Study metric, Riemannian foliations of projective space are studied. We prove that there are no complex Riemannian…

Let $\mathcal F$ be a co-oriented $C^2$ foliation on a closed, oriented 3-manifold. We show that $T\mathcal F$ can be perturbed to a contact structure with Reeb flow transverse to $\mathcal F$ if and only if $\mathcal F$ does not support an…
