On deformations of compact foliations
arXiv:1807.10748 · doi:10.1090/proc/14567
Abstract
We combine classic stability results for foliations with recent results on deformations of Lie groupoids and Lie algebroids to provide a cohomological characterization for rigidity of compact foliations on compact manifolds.
