We extend the classification of complete polynomial vector fields on C^2 given by Marco Brunella (Topology 43(2): 433-445, 2004) to cover the case of holomorphic (non-polynomial) vector fields whose underlying foliation is however still polynomial.
In this paper we provide sufficient conditions for maps of vector bundles on smooth projective varieties to be uniquely determined by their degeneracy schemes. We then specialize to holomorphic distributions and foliations. In particular, we provide sufficient conditions for distributions of arbitrary rank on projective spaces to be uniquely determined by their singular schemes.
Let $X$ be an irreducible holomorphic symplectic fourfold and $D$ a smooth hypersurface in $X$. It follows from a result by Amerik and Campana that the characteristic foliation (that is the foliation given by the kernel of the restriction of the symplectic form to $D$) is not algebraic unless $D$ is uniruled. Suppose now that the Zariski closure of its general leaf is a surface. We prove that $X$ has a lagrangian fibration and $D$ is the inverse image of a curve on its base.
Let $C$ be a smooth elliptic curve embedded in a smooth complex surface $X$ such that $C$ is a leaf of a suitable holomorphic foliation of $X$. We investigate complex analytic properties of a neighborhood of $C$ under some assumptions on complex dynamical properties of the holonomy function. As an application, we give an example of $(C, X)$ in which the line bundle $[C]$ is formally flat along $C$ however it does not admit a $C^\infty$ Hermitian metric with semi-positive curvature.

Let $X$ be a compact Kähler manifold and $α$ be a class in the Dolbeault cohomology class of bidegree $(1, 1)$ on $X$. When the numerical dimension of $α$ is one and $α$ admits at least two smooth semi-positive representatives, we show the existence of a family of real analytic Levi-flat hypersurfaces in $X$ and a holomorphic foliation on a suitable domain of $X$ along whose leaves any semi-positive representative of $α$ is zero. As an application, we give the affirmative answer to \cite[Conjecture 2.1]{K2019} on the relation between the semi-positivity of the line bundle $[Y]$ and the analyti…
We classify nonsingular holomorphic foliations of dimension and codimension one on certain Hopf manifolds. More general, we prove that all nonsingular codimension one distributions on intermediary or generic Hopf manifolds are integrable and has holomorphic integral first. Also, we prove some results about singular holomorphic distributions on Hopf manifolds.
We show that the topological equivalence class of holomorphic foliation germs with an isolated singularity of Poincaré type is determined by the topological equivalence class of the real intersection foliation of the (suitably normalized) foliation germ with a sphere centered in the singularity. We use this Reconstruction Theorem to completely classify topological equivalence classes of plane holomorphic foliation germs of Poincaré type and discuss a conjecture on the classification in dimension $\geq 3$.
We study holomorphic foliations tangent to singular real-analytic Levi-flat hypersurfaces in compact complex manifolds of complex dimension two. We give some hypotheses to guarantee the existence of dicritical singularities of these objects. As consequence, we give some applications to holomorphic foliations tangent to real-analytic Levi-flat hypersurfaces with singularities in $\mathbb{P}^2$.
It is shown that the Levi foliation of a real analytic Levi-flat hypersurface extends to a $d$-web near a nondicritical singular point and admits a multiple-valued meromorphic first integral.
We classify nonsingular holomorphic distributions of arbitrary codimension on certain Hopf manifolds. We prove that all holomorphic distribution of codimension k on a generic Hopf manifold is induced by a mononial holomorphic k-form.
We consider closed positive currents invariant by a singular holomorphic foliation on an algebraic surface. We show that under some conditions the foliation must leave invariant an algebraic curve.
We study those real $\mathcal{C}^\infty$ foliations in complex surfaces whose leaves are holomorphic curves. The main motivation is to try and understand these foliations in neighborhoods of curves: can we expect the space of foliations in a fixed neighborhood to be infinite-dimensional, or are there some contexts under which every such foliation is holomorphic? We give some restrictions and study in more details the geometry of foliations whose leaves belong to a holomorphic family of holomorphic curves. In particular, we classify all real-analytic foliations on neighborhoods of curves which …
We prove that a transversely holomorphic foliation which is transverse to the fibers of a fibration, is a Seifert fibration if the set of compact leaves is not of zero measure. Similarly, we prove that a finitely generated subgroup of holomorphic diffeomorphisms of a connected complex manifold, is finite provided that the set of periodic orbits is not of zero measure.
In this work we prove a Baum-Bott type residue theorem for flags of holomorphic foliations. We prove some relations between the residues of the flag and the residues of their correspondent foliations. We define the Nash residue for flags and we give a partial answer to the Baum-Bott type rationality conjecture in this context .
We consider a holomorphic foliation $\mathcal{F}$ of codimension $k\geq 1$ on a homogeneous compact Kähler manifold $X$ of dimension $n>k$. Assuming that the singular set $Sing(\mathcal{F})$ of $\mathcal{F}$ is contained in an absolutely $k$-convex domain $U\subset X$, we prove that the determinant of normal bundle $\det(N_{\mathcal{F}})$ of $\mathcal{F}$ cannot be an ample line bundle, provided $[n/k]\geq 2k+3$. Here $[n/k]$ denotes the largest integer $\leq n/k.$
This paper stresses the strong link between the existence of partial holomorphic connections on the normal bundle of a foliation seen as a quotient of the ambient tangent bundle and the extendability of a foliation to an infinitesimal neighborhood of a submanifold. We find the obstructions to extendability and thanks to the theory developed we obtain some new Khanedani-Lehmann-Suwa type index theorems.
We show that the open unit ball $\mathbb{B}^n$ of $\mathbb{C}^n$ $(n>1)$ admits a nonsingular holomorphic foliation by complete properly embedded holomorphic discs.
We study holomorphic foliations of codimension $k\geq 1$ on a complex manifold $X$ of dimension $n+k$ from the point of view of the exceptional minimal set conjecture. For $n\geq 2$ we show in particular that if the holomorphic normal bundle $N_{\mathcal{F}}$ is Griffiths positive, then the foliation does not admit a compact invariant set that is a complete intersection of $k$ smooth real hypersurfaces in $X$.
We present enumerative results for holomorphic foliations by curves on $\mathbb{P}^n$, $n\geq 3$, with singularities of positive dimension. Some of the results presented improve previous ones due to Corrêa--Fernández-Pérez--Nonato Costa--Vidal Martins and Nonato Costa. We also present an enumerative result bounding the number of isolated singularities in a projective subvariety invariant by a holomorphic foliation by curves on $\mathbb{P}^n$ with a singularity of positive dimension.
We present a list of open questions in the theory of holomorphic foliations, possibly with singularities. Some problems have been around for a while, others are very accessible.
We study Segre varieties associated to Levi-flat subsets in complex manifolds and apply them to establish local and global results on the integration of tangent holomorphic foliations.
We study codimension one holomorphic foliations on complex projective spaces and compact manifolds under the assumption that the foliation has a projective transverse structure in the complement of some invariant codimension one analytic subset. The basic motivation is the characterization of pull-backs of Riccati foliations on projective spaces. Our techniques apply to give a description of the generic models of codimension one foliations on compact manifolds of dimension $\ge 3$.
We prove inequalities relating the degrees of holomorphic distributions and of holomorphic foliations forming a flag on $\mathbb{P}^n$. Such inequalities are inspired by the so called Poincaré problem for foliations.
Let $\mathcal{F}$ be written as $ f^{*}(\mathcal{G})$, where $\mathcal{G}$ is a $1$-dimensional foliation on $ {\mathbb P^{n-1}}$ and $f:{\mathbb P^n}--->{\mathbb P^{n-1}}$ a non-linear generic rational map. We use local stability results of singular holomorphic foliations, to prove that: if $n\geq 4$, a foliation $\mathcal{F}$ by complex surfaces on $\mathbb P^n$ is globally stable under holomorphic deformations. As a consequence, we obtain irreducible components for the space of two-dimensional foliations in $\mathbb P^n$. We present also a result which characterizes holomorphic foliations o…
We consider the problem of extending germs of plane holomorphic foliations to foliations of compact surfaces. We show that the germs that become regular after a single blow up and admit meromorphic first integrals can be extended, after local changes of coordinates, to foliations of compact surfaces. We also show that the simplest elements in this class can be defined by polynomial equations. On the other hand we prove that, in the absence of meromorphic first integrals there are uncountably many elements without polynomial representations.
The purpose of this paper is the study of vanishing cycles in holomorphic foliations by complex curves on compact complex manifolds. The main result consists in showing that a vanishing cycle comes together with a much richer complex geometric object - we call this object a foliated shell.
We define the Milnor number -- as the intersection number of two holomorphic sections -- of a one-dimensional holomorphic foliation $\mathscr{F}$ with respect to a compact connected component $C$ of its singular set. Under certain conditions, we prove that the Milnor number of $\mathscr{F}$ on a three-dimensional manifold with respect to $C$ is invariant by $C^1$ topological equivalences.
In dimensions greater than or equal to 3, the local structure of a singular holomorphic foliation conceals a globally defined foliation on the projective space of dimension one less. In this paper, we will discuss how the global dynamics of the latter foliation exerts influence on several problems that apparently have a purely local nature. In the course of the discussion, a few recent results and open problems in the area will be reviewed as well.
These are the notes of a series of lectures delivered by the author at the Graduate School of Mathematics of the University of Tokyo, during the month of October 2015. They were meant to be as self-contained as possible, taking into account time and space. The basic idea was to introduce the concepts and some of the basic results in the theory of holomorphic foliations with singularities. Another goal is to guide the reader to some of the recent questions and problems in the field, providing in this way a motivating introduction to those who are interested in studying a new subject.
We describe the basic cohomology ring of the canonical holomorphic foliation on a moment-angle manifold, LVMB-manifold or any complex manifold with a maximal holomorphic torus action. Namely, we show that the basic cohomology has a description similar to the cohomology ring of a complete simplicial toric variety due to Danilov and Jurkiewicz. This settles a question of Battaglia and Zaffran, who previously computed the basic Betti numbers for the canonical holomorphic foliation in the case of a shellable fan. Our proof uses an Eilenberg-Moore spectral sequence argument; the key ingredient is t…
We study germs of holomorphic distributions with "separated variables'. In codimension one, a well know example of this kind of distribution is given by the canonical contact structure on $\mathbb{P}^{2m+1}$ . Another example is the Darboux distribution, which gives the normal local form of any contact structure. Given a germ $D$ of holomorphic distribution with separated variables in $(\mathbb{C}^n,0)$, we show that there exists , for some $κ\in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}$ related to the Taylor coefficients of $D$, a holomorphic submersion $H_{D}: (\mathbb{C}^n,0) \rightarrow (\mathbb{C}^κ,0)$ such …
Let $\mathcal{F}$ be written as $ f^{*}\mathcal{G}$, where $\mathcal{G}$ is a foliation in $ {\mathbb P^2}$ with three invariant lines in general position, say $(XYZ)=0$, and $f:{\mathbb P^n}--->{\mathbb P^2}$, $f=(F^α_{0}:F^β_{1}:F^γ_{2})$ is a nonlinear rational map. Using local stability results of singular holomorphic foliations, we prove that: if $n\geq 3$, the foliation $\mathcal{F}$ is globally stable under holomorphic deformations. As a consequence we obtain new irreducible componentes for the space of codimension one foliations on $\mathbb P^n$. We present also a result which characte…
We give a classification of pairs (F, f) where F is a holomorphic foliation on a projective surface and f is a non-invertible dominant rational map preserving F. We prove that both the map and the foliation are integrable in a suitable sense.
This article studies germs of holomorphic vector fields at the origin of C3 that are tangent to holomorphic foliations of codimension one. Two situations are considered. First, we assume hypotheses on the reduction of singularities of the vector field - for instance, that the final models belong to a family of vector fields whose linear parts have eigenvalues satisfying a condition of non-resonance - in order to conclude that the foliation is of complex hyperbolic type, that is, without saddle-nodes in its reduction of singularities. In the second part, we prove that a vector field that is tan…
Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a holomorphic foliation by curves defined in a neighborhood of $0$ in $\mathbb{C}^n$ ($n\geq 2$) having $0$ as a weakly hyperbolic singularity. Let $T$ be a positive harmonic current directed by $\mathcal{F}$ which does not give mass to any of the $n$ coordinate invariant hyperplanes $\{z_j=0\}$ for $1\leq j\leq n.$ Then we show that the Lelong number of $T$ at $0$ vanishes. Moreover, an application of this local result in the global context is given. We discuss also the relation between several basic notions such as directed positive harmonic currents, directed positive d…
We give a complete topological classification of germs of holomorphic foliations in the plane under rather generic conditions. The key point is the introduction of a new topological invariant called monodromy representation. This monodromy contains all the relevant dynamical information, in particular the projective holonomy representation whose topological invariance was conjectured in the eighties by Cerveau and Sad and proved here under mild hypotheses.
