The main result is that the diffusion $X_t^θ$ uniquely determined by a foliation has the property that the sample paths of $X_t^θ$ remain to diffuse on leaves. Next, the convex case is examined and some examples depending on special and arbitrary holomorphic functions are presented. Since the foliations and canonical diffusions can be constructed in those cases effectively, we arrive at some properties of holomorphic functions on hypersurfaces, eliminating the inconvenient notions of foliations and canonical diffusions.CONTENTSSummary...................................................................................................................................................................31.
