We prove that the tangent sheaf of a codimension one locally free distribution splits as a sum of line bundles if and only if its singular scheme is arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay. In addition, we show that a foliation by curves is given by…

In this work, we mainly deal with a two-dimensional singular holomorphic distribution $\mathcal{D}$ defined on $M$, in the two situations $M=\mathbb{P}^n$ or $M=(\mathbb{C}^n,0)$, tangent to a one-dimensional foliation $\mathcal{G}$ on $M$,…

In this paper we present necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a unique solution to the relaxed commutant lifting problem. The obtained conditions are more complicated than those for the classical commutant lifting…

Suppose $M_{1}$ and $M_{2}$ are two special Lagrangian submanifolds of $\Rtn$ with boundary that intersect transversally at one point $p$. The set $M_{1} \cup M_{2}$ is a singular special Lagrangian variety with an isolated singularity at…

In this paper we study holomorphic foliations on $\mathbb{P}^2$ with only one singular point. If the singularity has algebraic multiplicity one, we prove that the foliation has no invariant algebraic curve. We also present several examples…

A singular foliation is a partition of a manifold into leaves of perhaps varying dimension. Stefan and Sussmann carried out fundamental work on singular foliations in the 1970s. We survey their contributions, show how diffeological objects…

Let $X$ be an $(n+1)$-dimensional manifold, $\Delta$ be a one-dimensional foliation on $X$, and $p: X \to X / \Delta$ be a quotient map. We will say that a leaf $\omega$ of $\Delta$ is special whenever the space of leaves $X / \Delta$ is…

The purpose of this paper is to prove the uniqueness theorem of solutions of eigenvalue equations on one end of Riemannian manifolds for drift Laplacians, including the standard Laplacian as a special case; we shall impose "a sort of…

A holomorphic foliation is defined as an integrable coherent subsheaf of the tangent sheaf. The structure of the leaves around a singularity is read off from the structure of the stalks. This was done by Baum when the dimension of the…

We complete the classification, initiated by the second named author, of homogeneous singular Riemannian foliations of spheres that are lifts of foliations produced from Clifford systems.

This doctoral thesis has two objectives. The first objective is to introduce a notion of equivalence for singular foliations that preserves their transverse geometry and is compatible with the notions of Morita equivalence of the holonomy…

We give an easy example showing that sections of a singular Riemannian foliation on a simply connected space neither have to be isometric nor injectively immersed.

We study tangent sets of strictly self-affine sets in the plane. If a set in this class satisfies the strong separation condition and projects to a line segment for sufficiently many directions, then for each generic point there exists a…

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…

We prove Wilking's Conjecture about the completeness of dual leaves for the case of Riemannian foliations on nonnegatively curved symmetric spaces. Moreover, we conclude that such foliations split as a product of trivial foliations and a…

In this note, we give a simple necessary condition for the Zariski relative tangent space and the Grothendieck relative tangent space to be isomorphic.

A characterization of the foliation by spacelike slices of an $(n+1)$-dimensional spatially closed Generalized Robertson-Walker spacetime is given by means of studying a natural mean curvature type equation on spacelike graphs. Under some…

We classify singular foliations admitting a given leaf and a given transverse singular foliation.

We consider singular holomorphic foliations on compact complex surfaces with invariant rational nodal curve of positive self-intersection. Then, under some assumptions, we list all possible foliations.

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…
