This book is an introduction to several active research topics in Foliation Theory and its connections with other areas. It contains expository lectures showing the diversity of ideas and methods converging in the study of foliations. The lectures by Aziz El Kacimi Alaoui provide an introduction to Foliation Theory with emphasis on examples and transverse structures. Steven Hurder's lectures apply ideas from smooth dynamical systems to develop useful concepts in the study of foliations: limit sets and cycles for leaves, leafwise geodesic flow, transverse exponents, Pesin Theory and hyperbolic, parabolic and elliptic types of foliations. The lectures by Masayuki Asaoka compute ... Read more

Reviews for Foliations: Dynamics, Geometry and Topology
“This book contains the lecture notes of four courses on several topics with rather different flavor, which are linked by their relation with Foliation Theory. … the courses will be very helpful for any reader that wants to get quickly introduced to any of these lines of research.” (Jesus A. Álvarez López, zbMATH 1318.57001, 2015)
