Groupoïdes riemanniens.
We propose a definition of a Riemannian groupoid, and we show that the Stefan foliation that it induces is a Riemannian (singular) foliation. We also prove that the homotopy groupoid of a Riemannian (regular) foliation is a Riemannian groupoid.

Harmonic conformal flows on manifolds of constant curvature
We compute the energy of conformal flows on Riemannian manifolds and we prove that conformal flows on manifolds of constant curvature are critical if and only if they are isometric.
Hodge-Bott-Chern decompositions of mixed type forms on foliated Kähler manifolds
The Bott-Chern cohomology groups and the Bott-Chern Laplacian on differential forms of mixed type on a compact foliated Kähler manifold are defined and studied. Also, a Hodge decomposition theorem of Bott-Chern type for differential forms of mixed type is proved. Finally, the case of projectivized tangent bundle of a complex Finsler manifold is discussed.
Injectivity radius and optimal regularity of Lorentzian manifolds with bounded curvature
We review recent work on the local geometry and optimal regularity of Lorentzian manifolds with bounded curvature. Our main results provide an estimate of the injectivity radius of an observer, and a local canonical foliations by CMC (Constant Mean Curvature) hypersurfaces, together with spatially harmonic coordinates. In contrast with earlier results based on a global bound for derivatives of the curvature, our method requires only a sup-norm bound on the curvature near the given observer.
Integral formulae for a Riemannian manifold with two orthogonal distributions
We obtain a series of new integral formulae for a distribution of arbitrary codimension (and its orthogonal complement) given on a closed Riemannian manifold, which start from the formula by Walczak (1990) and generalize ones for foliations by several authors. For foliations on space forms our formulae reduce to the classical type formulae by Brito-Langevin-Rosenberg (1981) and Brito-Naveira (2000). The integral formulae involve the conullity tensor of a distribution, and certain components of the...

Invariant measures for the stable foliation on negatively curved periodic manifolds
We classify reversible measures for the stable foliation on manifolds which are infinite covers of compact negatively curved manifolds. We extend the known results from hyperbolic surfaces to varying curvature and to all dimensions.
Kähler manifolds with split tangent bundle
This paper is concerned with compact Kähler manifolds whose tangent bundle splits as a sum of subbundles. In particular, it is shown that if the tangent bundle is a sum of line bundles, then the manifold is uniformised by a product of curves. The methods are taken from the theory of foliations of (co)dimension 1.

Lagrangian holonomy ; characteristic elements of a lagrangian foliation
Let be a lagrangian foliation on a symplectic manifold . The characteristic elements of such a foliation associated to a lagrangian total transversal are obtained; they are a generalisation of the characteristic elements given by J.J. Duistermaat [5]. This technique is applied to give a classification of the germs of lagrangian foliation along a compact leaf. Several examples of classification are given.

Leaves of foliations with a transverse geometric structure of finite type.
In this short note we find some conditions which ensure that a G foliation of finite type with all leaves compact is a Riemannian foliation of equivalently the space of leaves of such a foliation is a Satake manifold. A particular attention is paid to transversaly affine foliations. We present several conditions which ensure completeness of such foliations.
