Let $\mathcal F$ be a smooth Riemann surface foliation on $M \setminus E$, where $M$ is a complex manifold and the singular set $E \subset M$ is an analytic set of codimension at least two. Fix a hermitian metric on $M$ and assume that all…

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…

In this paper we introduce the concept of singular Finsler foliation, which generalizes the concepts of Finsler actions, Finsler submersions and (regular) Finsler foliations. We show that if $\mathcal{F}$ is a singular Finsler foliation on…

A meromorphic quadratic differential with poles of order two, on a compact Riemann surface, induces a measured foliation on the surface, with a spiralling structure at any pole that is determined by the complex residue of the differential…

We describe a local model for any Singular Riemannian Foliation in a neighbourhood of a closed saturated submanifold of a regular stratum. Moreover we construct a Lie groupoid which controls the transverse geometry of the linear…

For a singular Riemannian foliation whose leaves are properly embedded, we show in the first part of this article the existence of global tubular neighbourhoods, and we develop a global description of the foliation as stratification by…

A singular foliation is called a singular Riemannian foliation (SRF) if every geodesic that is perpendicular to one leaf is perpendicular to every leaf it meets. A typical example is the partition of a complete Riemannian manifold into…

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…

In this paper we study several dynamical properties of the riemannian $1$-dimensional foliation $\mathcal{L}$ on an oriented closed 3-manifold $M$. Carriere classified such pairs $(M,\mathcal{L})$. Using the classification we prove the…

Singular Riemannian Foliations are particular types of foliations on Riemannian manifolds, in which leaves locally stay at a constant distance from each other. Singular Riemannian Foliations in round spheres play a special role, since they…

We prove that if the normal distribution of a singular riemannian foliation is integrable, then each leaf of this normal distribution can be extended to be a complete immersed totally geodesic submanifold (called section) which meets every…

In this paper we investigate new applications of the blow-up desingularization method in the context of singular Riemannian foliations. First, we relate the dynamics of such a foliation, which is governed by the so-called Molino sheaf, with…

In this paper we survey on some recent results on Riemannian orbifolds and singular Riemannian foliations and combine them to conclude the existence of closed geodesics in the leaf space of some classes of singular Riemannian foliations…

We study the problem of removable singularities for degenerate elliptic equations. Let F be a fully nonlinear second-order partial differential subequation of degenerate elliptic type on a manifold X. We study the question: Which closed…

We identify a class of singular algebraic foliations whose leaves through singular points retain regularity. The proof consists in showing existence of residual gerbes for certain formal stacks, which do not enjoy smooth presentations. As…

It is known that there is at least an invariant analytic curve passing through each of the components in the complement of nodal singularities, after the reduction of singularities of a germ of singular foliation in ${\mathbb C}^2,0$}.…

Let $\mathcal F$ be a holomorphic one-dimensional foliation on $\mathbb{P}^n$ such that the components of its singular locus $\Sigma$ are curves $C_i$ and points $p_j$. We determine the number of $p_j$, counted with multiplicities, in terms…

We prove that a submanifold with parallel focal structure, which is a generalization of isoparametric and equifocal submanifolds, induces a singular Riemannian foliation of the ambient space by its parallel and focal manifolds.

We present existence results for certain singular 2-dimensional foliations on 4-manifolds. The singularities can be chosen to be simple, e.g. the same as those that appear in Lefschetz pencils. There seems to be a wealth of such creatures…

A foliation F on a Riemannian manifold M is homogeneous if its leaves coincide with the orbits of an isometric action on M. A foliation F is polar if it admits a section, that is, a connected closed totally geodesic submanifold of M which…
