Bounds on Leaves of Foliations of the Plane
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper contributes to the solution of the Poincaré problem, which is to bound the degree of a (generalized algebraic) leaf of a (singular algebraic) foliation of the complex projective plane. The first theorem gives a new sort of bound, which involves the Castelnuovo–Mumford regularity of the singular locus of the leaf. The second theorem gives a bound in terms of two singularity numbers of the leaf: the total Tjurina number, and the number of non-quasi-homogeneous singularities. If such singularities are present, then this bound improves one due to du Plessis and Wall, at least when the curve is irreducible.

On the Characterization of Algebraically Integrable Plane Foliations
We give a characterization theorem for non-degenerate plane foliations of degree different from 1 having a rational first integral. Moreover, we prove that the degree r of a non-degenerate foliation as above provides the minimum number, r+ 1, of points in the projective plane through which pass infinitely many algebraic leaves of the foliation.
متن کاملBounds on $m_r(2,29)$
An $(n, r)$-arc is a set of $n$ points of a projective plane such that some $r$, but no $r+1$ of them, are collinear. The maximum size of an $(n, r)$-arc in PG(2, q) is denoted by $m_r(2,q)$. In this paper thirteen new $(n, r)$-arc in PG(2,,29) and a table with the best known lower and upper bounds on $m_r(2,29)$ are presented. The results are obtained by non-exhaustive local computer search.
متن کاملFoliations and Chern-Heinz inequalities
We extend the Chern-Heinz inequalities about mean curvature and scalar curvature of graphs of C2-functions to leaves of transversally oriented codimension one C2-foliations of Riemannian manifolds. That extends partially Salavessa’s work on mean curvature of graphs and generalize results of Barbosa-Kenmotsu-Oshikiri [3] and Barbosa-GomesSilveira [2] about foliations of 3-dimensional Riemannian ...
متن کاملA Hölder continuous vector field tangent to many foliations
We construct an example of a Hölder continuous vector field on the plane which is tangent to all foliations in a continuous family of pairwise distinct C foliations. Given any 1 ≤ r < ∞, the construction can be done in such a way that each leaf of each foliation is the graph of a Cr function from R to R. We also show the existence of a continuous vector field X on R and two foliations F and G o...
متن کاملIdentification of Riemannian foliations on the tangent bundle via SODE structure
The geometry of a system of second order differential equations is the geometry of a semispray, which is a globally defined vector field on TM. The metrizability of a given semispray is of special importance. In this paper, the metric associated with the semispray S is applied in order to study some types of foliations on the tangent bundle which are compatible with SODE structure. Indeed, suff...
