Book DetailsMathematical Surveys and MonographsVolume: 140; 2007; 256 ppMSC: Primary 53; 32
The authors study the relationship between foliation theory and differential geometry and analysis on Cauchy–Riemann (CR) manifolds. The main objects of study are transversally and tangentially CR foliations, Levi foliations of CR manifolds, solutions of the Yang–Mills equations, tangentially Monge–Ampére foliations, the transverse Beltrami equations, and CR orbifolds. The novelty of the authors' approach consists in the overall use of the methods of foliation theory and choice of specific applications. Examples of such applications are Rea's holomorphic extension of Levi foliations, Stanton's holomorphic degeneracy, Boas and Straube's approximately commuting vector fields method for the study of global regularity of Neumann operators and Bergman projections in multi-dimensional complex analysis in several complex variables, as well as various applications to differential geometry. Many open problems proposed in the monograph may attract the mathematical community and lead to further applications of foliation theory in complex analysis and geometry of Cauchy–Riemann manifolds.
