Rigidity of Riemannian Foliations with Complex Leaves on Kähler Manifolds *
We study Riemannian foliations with complex leaves on Kähler 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 classification results when the manifold is compact.
متن کاملFoliations of Some 3-manifolds Which Fiber Over
We show that a hyperbolic punctured torus bundle admits a foli-ation by lines which is covered by a product foliation. Thus its fundamental group acts freely on the plane.
متن کاملAspherical manifolds that cannot be triangulated
Although Kirby and Siebenmann [13] showed that there are manifolds which do not admit PL structures, the possibility remained that all manifolds could be triangulated. In the late seventies Galewski and Stern [10] constructed a closed 5–manifold M 5 so that every n–manifold, with n 5, can be triangulated if and only if M 5 can be triangulated. Moreover, M 5 admits a triangulation if and only if...
متن کاملFoliations with Nonorientable Leaves
We prove that a codimension one foliation of an orientable paracompact manifold has at most a countable number of nonorientable leaves. We also give an example of a codimension one foliation of a compact orientable manifold with an infinite number of nonorientable leaves. Introduction. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the occurrence of nonorientable leaves in a codimension one foliat...
متن کاملFundamental Classes of Negatively Curved Manifolds Cannot Be Represented by Products of Manifolds
Not every singular homology class is the push-forward of the fundamental class of some manifold. In the same spirit, one can study the following problem: Which singular homology classes are the push-forward of the fundamental class of a given type of manifolds? In the present article, we show that the fundamental classes of negatively curved manifolds cannot be represented by a non-trivial prod...
