Branching in the Universal Cover of Taut Foliations
We study the topology of codimension one taut foliations of closed orientable 3-manifolds which are smooth along the leaves. In particular, we focus on the lifts of these foliations to the universal cover, specifically when any set of leaves corresponding to nonseparable points in the leaf space can be totally ordered. We use the structure of branching in the lifted foliation to find conditions...
متن کاملA Higher Dimensional Generalization of Taut Foliations
A higher dimensional generalization of taut foliations is introduced. Tools from symplectic geometry are used to describe surgery constructions, and to study the space of leaves of this class of foliations. Codimension one foliations are too large a class of structures to obtain strong structure theorems for them. According to a theorem of Thurston [39] a closed manifold admits a codimension on...
متن کاملLong time behavior of leafwise heat flow for Riemannian foliations
For any Riemannian foliation F on a closed manifold M with an arbitrary bundle-like metric, leafwise heat flow of differential forms is proved to preserve smoothness on M at infinite time. This result and its proof have consequences about the space of bundle-like metrics on M , about the dimension of the space of leafwise harmonic forms, and mainly about the second term of the differentiable sp...
متن کاملContinuous Leafwise Harmonic Functions on Codimension One Transversely Isometric Foliations
Let F be a codimension one foliation on a closed manifold M which admits a transverse dimension one Riemannian foliation. Then any continuous leafwise harmonic functions are shown to be constant on leaves.
متن کاملGraph Manifolds Z-homology 3-spheres and Taut Foliations
We show that a graph manifold which is a Z-homology 3-sphere not homeomorphic to either S or Σ(2, 3, 5) admits a horizontal foliation. This combines with known results to show that the conditions of not being an L-space, of having a left-orderable fundamental group, and of admitting a co-oriented taut foliation, are equivalent for graph manifold Z-homology 3-spheres.
