Given a spacelike foliation of a spacetime and a marginally outer trapped surface S on some initial leaf, we prove that under a suitable stability condition S is contained in a ``horizon'', i.e. a smooth 3-surface foliated by marginally…
Let $\mathcal{F}$ denote a singular holomorphic foliation on $\mathbb{P}^2$ having a finite automorphism group $\mbox{aut}(\mathcal{F})$. Fixed the degree of $\mathcal{F}$, we determine the maximal value that $|\mbox{aut}(\mathcal{F})|$ can…
We show that if a smooth multiplicative subbundle $S\subseteq TG$ on a groupoid $G\rr P$ is involutive and satisfies completeness conditions, then its leaf space $G/S$ inherits a groupoid structure over the space of leaves of $TP\cap S$ in…
We prove a reduction of singularities for pairs of foliations by blowing-up, and then investigate the analytic classification of the reduced models. Those reduced pairs of regular foliations are well understood. The case of a regular and a…
In this work, we study the geometric properties of spacelike foliations by hypersurfaces on a Lorentz manifold. We investigate conditions for the leaves being stable, totally geodesic or totally umbilical. We consider that…
Foliations in the complex projective plane are uniquely determined by their singular locus, which is in correspondence with a zero-dimensional ideal. However, this correspondence is not surjective. We give conditions to determine whether an…
We investigate singular Finsler foliations (SFFs) on a manifold equipped with an $(\alpha,\beta)$-metric. To be precise, we verify that any SFF of an $(\alpha,\beta)$-space is, under some hypotheses on the metric, a singular Riemannian…
We present an extension of several results on pairs and varieties to foliated surface pairs. We prove the boundedness of local complements, the local index theorem, and the uniform boundedness of minimal log discrepancies (mlds), as well as…
We prove that the open unit ball $\mathbb{B}_n$ of $\mathbb{C}^n$ $(n\ge 2)$ admits a nonsingular holomorphic foliation $\mathcal F$ by closed complex hypersurfaces such that both the union of the complete leaves of $\mathcal F$ and the…
The Poincare Problem can be reduced to a problem on fibered surfaces, concretely, to bound the genus of the fibration by means of numerical information of the canonical sheaf of the associated foliation. In this paper we: 1. explain how…
A rigorous geometric proof of the Lie's Theorem on nonlinear superposition rules for solutions of non-autonomous ordinary differential equations is given filling in all the gaps present in the existing literature. The proof is based on an…
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…
Recently M. Kreck introduced a class of stratified spaces called p-stratifolds [M. Kreck, Stratifolds, Preprint]. He defined and investigated resolutions of p-stratifolds analogously to resolutions of algebraic varieties. In this note we…
We prove that, up to isometric congruence, there are exactly 2n+1 homogeneous polar foliations of the complex hyperbolic space. We also give an explicit description of each of these foliations.
We will work with codimension one holomorphic foliations over the complex projective space, represented by integrable forms $\omega\in H^0(\Omega^1_{\PP^n}(e))$. Our main result is that, under suitable hypotheses, the Kupka set of the…
We prove that any hyperbolic end with particles (cone singularities along infinite curves of angles less than $\pi$) admits a unique foliation by constant Gauss curvature surfaces. Using a form of duality between hyperbolic ends with…
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…
In this work we classify foliations on $\mathbb{CP}^3$ of codimension 1 and degree $2$ that have a line as singular set. To achieve this, we do a complete description of the components. We prove that the boundary of the exceptional…
Related to the classification of regular foliations in a complex algebraic surface, we address the problem of classifying the complex surfaces which admit a flat pencil of foliations. On this matter, a classification of flat pencils which…
This thesis is concerned with equidistant foliations of Euclidean space, i.e. partitions into complete, connected, properly embedded smooth submanifolds. The space of leaves is an Alexandrov space of nonnegative curvature and the canonical…
