The $\text{PSL}(4,\mathbb{R})$ Hitchin component of a closed surface group $\pi_1(S)$ consists of holonomies of properly convex foliated projective structures on the unit tangent bundle of $S$. We prove that the leaves of the…
In this article we give a geometric interpretation of the Hitchin component for PSL(4,R) in the representation variety of a closed oriented surface of higher genus. We show that representations in the Hitchin component are precisely the…
Let $S$ be a closed surface of genus $g \geq 2$. We study the cocompact domain of discontinuity $\Omega_{\rho}$ in the Einstein universe $\mathrm{Ein}^{p-1,p}$ defined by Guichard-Wienhard and Kapovich-Leeb-Porti for a class of $p$-Anosov…
Let $\omega$ be a differential $q$-form defining a foliation of codimension $q$ in a projective variety. In this article we study the singular locus of $\omega$ in various settings. We relate a certain type of singularities, which we name…
We consider holomorphic foliations by curves on compact complex manifolds, for which we investigate the existence of projective structures along the leaves varying holomorphically (foliated projective structures), that satisfy particular…
We study foliations $\mathcal{F}$ on Hirzebruch surfaces $S_\delta$ and prove that, similarly to those on the projective plane, any $\mathcal{F}$ can be represented by a bi-homogeneous polynomial affine $1$-form. In case $\mathcal{F}$ has…
We give a geometric characterization of flag geometries associated to Hitchin representations in $\text{SL}_3(\mathbb{R})$. Our characterization is based on distinguished invariant foliations, similar to those studied by Guichard-Wienhard…
We show that the set of singular holomorphic foliations of the projective spaces with split tangent sheaf and with good singular set is open in the space of holomorphic foliations. As applications we present a generalization of a result by…
We consider a class of foliations on the complex projective plane that are determined by a quadratic vector field in a fixed affine neighborhood. Such foliations, as a rule, have an invariant line at infinity. Two foliations with…
We show that Thurston's skinning maps of Teichmuller space have finite fibers. The proof centers around a study of two subvarieties of the SL_2(C) character variety of a surface, one associated to complex projective structures and the other…
In this paper we investigate the properties of the real and complex projective structures associated to Hitchin and quasi-Hitchin representations that were originally constructed using Guichard-Wienhard's theory of domains of discontinuity.…
We propose a study of the foliations of the projective plane induced by simple derivations of the polynomial ring in two indeterminates over the complex field. These correspond to foliations which have no invariant algebraic curve nor…
We call a foliation $\mathcal{F}$ on a compact manifold infinitesimally rigid if its deformation cohomology $H^{1}(\mathcal{F},N\mathcal{F})$ vanishes. This paper studies infinitesimal rigidity for a distinguished class of Riemannian…
Let $\Omega$ be a Lipschitz polyhedral (can be nonconvex) domain in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$, and $V_{h}$ denotes the finite element space of continuous piecewise linear polynomials. On non-obtuse quasi-uniform tetrahedral meshes, we prove that the…
We prove a Hitchin-Thorpe inequality for noncompact 4-manifolds with foliated geometry at infinity by extending on previous work by Dai and Wei. After introducing the objects at hand, we recall some preliminary results regarding the…
Let $(M,g)$ be an asymptotically hyperbolic manifold with a smooth conformal compactification. We establish a general correspondence between semilinear elliptic equations of scalar curvature type on $\del M$ and Weingarten foliations in…
We study the invariant theory of singular foliations of the projective plane. Our first main result is that a foliation of degree m>1 is not stable only if it has singularities in dimension 1 or contains an isolated singular point with…
We present a new list of irreducible components of the space of codimension two holomorphic foliations on $\mathbb P^{4}$. They are associated to the pull-back by branched rational maps of 1-dimensional foliations on $\mathbb P^3$ leaving…
Let $S$ be a closed surface of genus at least $2$. For each maximal representation $\rho: \pi_1(S)\rightarrow\mathsf{Sp}(4,\mathbb{R})$ in one of the $2g-3$ exceptional connected components, we prove there is a unique conformal structure on…
We prove that, under mild restrictions, the space of codimension-one foliations of degree one on a smooth projective complete intersection has two irreducible components of logarithmic type. We also prove that the same conclusion holds for…
