Transversely projective foliations on surfaces: existence of normal forms and prescription of the monodromy

We introduce a notion of normal form for transversely projective structures of singular foliations on complex manifolds. Our first main result says that this normal form exists and is unique when ambient space is two-dimensional. From this result one obtains a natural way to produce invariants for transversely projective foliations on surfaces. Our second main result says that on projective surfaces one can construct singular transversely projective foliations with prescribed monodromy.

Complex codimension one singular foliations and Godbillon-Vey sequences

Let F be a codimension one singular holomorphic foliation on a compact complex manifold M. Assume that there exists a meromorphic vector field X on M generically transversal to F. Then, we prove that F is the meromorphic pull-back of an algebraic foliation on an algebraic manifold N, or F is transversely projective outside a compact hypersurface, improving our previous work (see version 1). Such a vector field insures the existence of a global meromorphic Godbillon-Vey sequence for the foliation F. We derive sufficient conditions on this sequence insuring such alternative. For instance, if there exists a finite Godbillon-Vey sequence or if the Godbillon-Vey invariant is zero, then either F is the pull-back of a foliation on a surface, or F is transversely projective. We illustrate these results with many examples.

Fibrations, Divisors and Transcendental Leaves

We will use flat divisors, and canonically associated singular holomorphic foliations, to investigate some of the geometry of compact complex manifolds. The paper is mainly concerned with three distinct problems: the existence of fibrations, the topology of smooth hypersurfaces and the topological closure of transcendental leaves of foliations.

On the Poincare Problem for Foliations of General Type

Let F be a holomorphic foliation of general type on CP(2) which admits a rational first integral. We provide bounds for the degree of the first integral of F just in function of the degree, the birational invariants of F and the geometric genus of a generic leaf. Similar bounds for invariant algebraic curves are also obtained and examples are given showing the necessity of the hypothesis.

Vector Fields, Invariant Varieties and Linear Systems

We investigate the interplay between invariant varieties of vector fields and the inflection locus of linear systems with respect to the vector field. Among the consequences of such investigation we obtain a computational criteria for the existence of rational first integrals of a given degree, bounds for the number of first integrals on families of vector fields and a generalization of Darboux's criteria. We also provide a new proof of Gomez-Mont's result on foliations with all leaves algebraic.

Multiplicity of Invariant Algebraic Curves and Darboux Integrability

We define four different kinds of multiplicity of an invariant algebraic curve for a given polynomial vector field and investigate their relationships. After taking a closer look at the singularities and at the line of infinity, we improve the Darboux theory of integrability using these new notions of multiplicity.

An analogous of Jouanolou's Theorem in positive characteristic

We show that a generic vector field on an affine space of positive characteristic admits an invariant algebraic hypersurface. This contrast with Jouanolou's Theorem that shows that in characteristic zero the situation is completely opposite. That is a generic vector field in the complex plane does not admit any invariant algebraic curve.

Global Stability for Holomorphic Foliations in Kaehler Manifolds

We prove the following theorem for Holomorphic Foliations in compact complex kaehler manifolds: if there is a compact leaf with finite holonomy, then every leaf is compact with finite holonomy. As corollary we reobtain stability theorems for compact foliations in Kaehler manifolds of Edwards-Millett-Sullivan and Hollman.
