Nontaut foliations and isoperimetric constants

Konrad Blachowski (2002)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We study nontaut codimension one foliations on closed Riemannian manifolds. We find an estimate of some constant derived from the mean curvature function of the leaves of a foliation by some isoperimetric constant of the manifold. Moreover, for foliated 2-tori and the 3-dimensional unit sphere, we find the infimum of the former constants for all nontaut codimension one foliations.

Weitzenböck Formula for SL(q)-foliations

Adam Bartoszek, Jerzy Kalina, Antoni Pierzchalski (2010)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

A Weitzenböck formula for SL(q)-foliations is derived. Its linear part is a relative trace of the relative curvature operator acting on vector valued forms.
