Characteristic classes of subfoliations

Luis A. Cordero, X. Masa (1981)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

This paper is devoted to define a characteristic homomorphism for a subfoliation ( F 1 , F 2 ) and to study its relation with the usual characteristic homomorphism for each foliation (as defined by Bott). Moreover, two applications are given: 1) the Yamato’s 2-codimensional foliation is shown to be no homotopic to F 2 in a (1,2)-codimensional subfoliation; 2) an obstruction to the existence of d everywhere independent and transverse infinitesimal transformations of a foliation F 2 is obtained, when F 2 and these...

Characteristic homomorphism for ( F 1 , F 2 ) -foliated bundles over subfoliated manifolds

José Manuel Carballés (1984)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

In this paper a construction of characteristic classes for a subfoliation ( F 1 , F 2 ) is given by using Kamber-Tondeur’s techniques. For this purpose, the notion of ( F 1 , F 2 ) -foliated principal bundle, and the definition of its associated characteristic homomorphism, are introduced. The relation with the characteristic homomorphism of F i -foliated bundles, i = 1 , 2 , the results of Kamber-Tondeur on the cohomology of g - D G -algebras. Finally, Goldman’s results on the restriction of foliated bundles to the leaves of a foliation...

Classes caractéristiques exotiques et -connexité des espaces de connexions

Daniel Lehmann (1974)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Le but de ce travail est double : d’une part, généraliser la construction des classes exotiques pour l’appliquer à d’autres problèmes géométriques que ceux issus des Γ -structures ; d’autre part, préciser, grâce à la notion de J -connexité, remplaçant avantageusement les formules de dérivation utilisées précédemment, l’argument d’invariance homotopique permettant d’obtenir des théorèmes de rigidité, montrant simultanément pourquoi la seule connexité des ensembles de connexions considérés ne suffit...

Close cohomologous Morse forms with compact leaves

Irina Gelbukh (2013)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We study the topology of foliations of close cohomologous Morse forms (smooth closed 1-forms with non-degenerate singularities) on a smooth closed oriented manifold. We show that if a closed form has a compact leave γ , then any close cohomologous form has a compact leave close to γ . Then we prove that the set of Morse forms with compactifiable foliations (foliations with no locally dense leaves) is open in a cohomology class, and the number of homologically independent compact leaves does not decrease...

Codimension one minimal foliations and the fundamental groups of leaves

Tomoo Yokoyama, Takashi Tsuboi (2008)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Let be a transversely orientable transversely real-analytic codimension one minimal foliation of a paracompact manifold M . We show that if the fundamental group of each leaf of is isomorphic to Z , then is without holonomy. We also show that if π 2 ( M ) 0 and the fundamental group of each leaf of is isomorphic to Z k ( k Z 0 ), then is without holonomy.

Cohomology of Lie groups made discrete.

Pere Pascual Gainza (1990)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

We give a survey of the work of Milnor, Friedlander, Mislin, Suslin and other authors on the Friedlander-Milnor conjecture on the homology of Lie groups made discrete and its relation to the algebraic K-theory of fields.
