We establish normal forms for conformal vector fields on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds in the neighborhood of a singularity. For real-analytic Lorentzian manifolds, we show that the vector field is analytically linearizable or the manifold is…

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…

The dynamics of ionization fronts that generate a conducting body, are in simplest approximation equivalent to viscous fingering without regularization. Going beyond this approximation, we suggest that ionization fronts can be modeled by a…

Let $Y$ be a compact complex manifold embedded in a complex manifold with unitary flat normal bundle. Our interest is in a sort of the linearizability problem of a neighborhood of $Y$. As a higher-codimensional generalization of Ueda's…

Consider a complex analytic manifold $X$ and a coherent Lie subalgebra $\shi$ of the Lie algebra of complex vector fields on $X$. By using a natural $\shd_X$-module $\shm_\shi$ naturally associated to $\shi$ and the ring (in the derived…

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…

A singular (or Hermann) foliation on a smooth manifold $M$ can be seen as a subsheaf of the sheaf $\mathfrak{X}$ of vector fields on $M$. We show that if this singular foliation admits a resolution (in the sense of sheaves) consisting of…

We present an equivalent criterion for the global existence of Euler's multiplier for an integrable one-form taking into account the corresponding codim-1-foliation. In particular, the impact of inseparable leaves is considered. Here, we…

Let $v$ be a unit vector field on a complete, umbilic (but not totally geodesic) hypersurface $N$ in a space form; for example on the unit sphere $S^{2k-1} \subset \mathbb{R}^{2k}$, or on a horosphere in hyperbolic space. We give necessary…

We show, under an assumption on the weakly pseudoconvex points, the trivial Diederich--Forn\ae ss index directly implies the global regularities of the $\bar{\partial}$-Neumann operators.

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a singular Riemann surface foliation on a complex manifold $M$, such that the singular set $E \subset M$ is non-discrete. We study the behavior of the foliation near the singular set $E$, particularly focusing on…

In 1992, P. Pol\'{a}\v{c}ik\cite{P2} showed that one could linearly imbed any vector fields into a scalar semi-linear parabolic equation on $\Omega$ with Neumann boundary condition provided that there exists a smooth vector field…

We characterize compact eight-manifolds M which arise as internal spaces in N=1 flux compactifications of M-theory down to AdS3 using the theory of foliations, for the case when the internal part of the supersymmetry generator is everywhere…

Motivated by recent discussions of fractons, we explore nonrelativistic field theories with a continuous global symmetry, whose charge is a spatial vector. We present several such symmetries and demonstrate them in concrete examples. They…

We develop tools for determining the gauge theory resulting from a configuration of Type IIB D3-branes probing a non-compact, toric Calabi-Yau 3-fold, in the presence of additional flavor D7-branes with general embeddings. Two main…

D-branes in curved backgrounds can be treated with techniques of boundary conformal field theory. We discuss the influence of scalar condensates on such branes, i.e. perturbations of boundary conditions by marginal boundary operators. A…

In this paper we introduce and study a new class of varifolds in $\mathbf{R}^{n+1}$ of arbitrary dimensions and co-dimensions, which satisfy a Neumann-type boundary condition characterizing capillarity. The key idea is to introduce a Radon…

We study how regularity along a submanifold of a differential or microdifferential system can propagate from a family of submanifolds to another. The first result is that a microdifferential system regular along a lagrangian foliation is…

We show how to construct a class of smooth bounded pseudoconvex domains whose boundary contains a given Stein manifold with strongly pseudoconvex boundary, having a prescribed codimension and D'Angelo class (a cohomological invariant…

We study the conditions under which a generic supergravity model involving chiral and vector multiplets can admit vacua with spontaneously broken supersymmetry and realistic cosmological constant. We find that the existence of such viable…
