We prove that if the leaves of a minimal Lie foliation are locally isometric to a symmetric space of non-compact type without a Poincare disk factor, then the foliation is smoothly conjugate to a homogeneous Lie foliation up to finite…

Isoparametric submanifolds and hypersurfaces in space forms are geometric objects that have been studied since E. Cartan. Another important class of geometric objects is the orbits of a polar action on a Riemannian manifold,e.g., the orbits…

It is known that, for a regular riemannian foliation on a compact manifold, the properties of its basic cohomology (non-vanishing of the top-dimensional group and Poincar\'e Duality) and the tautness of the foliation are closely related. If…

We study the existence of closed geodesics on compact Riemannian orbifolds, and on noncompact Riemannian manifolds in the presence of a cocompact, isometric group action. We show that every noncontractible Riemannian manifold which admits…

We show that singular Riemannian foliations, or, more generally, manifold submetries, defined on a compact normal homogeneous space, have algebraic nature. Moreover, in this case there exists a one-to-one correspondence between algebras of…

We study cohomogeneity one Riemannian manifolds and we establish some simple criterium to test when a singular orbit is totally geodesic. As an application, we classify compact, positively curved Riemannian manifolds which are acted on…

A singular foliation $\mathcal{F}$ on a complete Riemannian manifold $M$ is called Singular Riemannian foliation (SRF for short) if its leaves are locally equidistant, e.g., the partition of $M$ into the orbits of a Lie group action by…

In this paper we present some new results on the tautness of Riemannian foliations in their historical context. The first part of the paper gives a short history of the problem. For a closed manifold, the tautness of a Riemannian foliation…

In this paper, the authors consider leaf spaces of singular Riemannian foliations $\mathcal{F}$ on compact manifolds $M$ and the associated $\mathcal{F}$-basic spectrum on $M$, $spec_B(M, \mathcal{F}),$ counted with multiplicities.…

We study Riemannian foliations with complex leaves on Kaehler manifolds. The tensor T, the obstruction to the foliation be totally geodesic, is interpreted as a holomorphic section of a certain vector bundle. This enables us to give…

Some properties of Riemannian foliations on closed manifolds are generalized to compact equicontinuous foliated spaces. For instance, it is proved that all holonomy covers of the leaves are quasi-isometric to each other.

R. Zimmer proved that, on a compact manifold, a foliation with a dense leaf, a suitable leafwise Riemannian symmetric metric and a transverse Lie structure has arithmetic holonomy group. In this work we improve such result for totally…

In this survey we present classical results on methods to use group actions to collapse manifolds to the orbit spaces while keeping some control on the curvature, and recent extensions of these constructions to the setting of singular…

Motivated by Gray's work on tube formulae for complex submanifolds of complex projective space equipped with the Fubini-Study metric, Riemannian foliations of projective space are studied. We prove that there are no complex Riemannian…

For a Riemannian foliation F on a compact manifold M , J. A. \'Alvarez L\'opez proved that the geometrical tautness of F , that is, the existence of a Riemannian metric making all the leaves minimal submanifolds of M, can be characterized…

Riemann Poisson manifolds were introduced by the author in [1] and studied in more details in [2]. K\"ahler-Riemann foliations form an interesting subset of the Riemannian foliations with remarkable properties (see [3]). In this paper we…

A parallel lightlike vector field on a Lorentzian manifold $X$ naturally defines a foliation $\mathcal{F}$ of codimension one. If either all leaves of $\mathcal{F}$ are compact or $X$ itself is compact admitting a compact leaf and the…

In the paper we introduce the notions of a singular fibration and a singular Seifert fibration. These notions are natural generalizations of the notion of a locally trivial fibration to the category of stratified pseudomanifolds. For…

For a riemannian foliation $\mathcal{F}$ on a closed manifold $M$, it is known that $\mathcal{F}$ is taut (i.e. the leaves are minimal submanifolds) if and only if the (tautness) class defined by the mean curvature form $\kappa_\mu$…

We prove that an isometric action of a Lie group on a Riemannian manifold admits a resolution preserving the transverse geometry if and only if the action is infinitesimally polar. We provide applications concerning topological simplicity…
