Generalized transversely projective structure on a transversely holomorphic foliation

The results of Biswas (2000) are extended to the situation of transversely projective foliations. In particular, it is shown that a transversely holomorphic foliation defined using everywhere locally nondegenerate maps to a projective space ℂℙn, and whose transition functions are given by automorphi...

description The results of Biswas (2000) are extended to the situation of transversely projective foliations. In particular, it is shown that a transversely holomorphic foliation defined using everywhere locally nondegenerate maps to a projective space ℂℙn, and whose transition functions are given by automorphisms of the projective space, has a canonical transversely projective structure. Such a foliation is also associated with a transversely holomorphic section of N⊗−k for each k∈[3,n+1], where N is the normal bundle to the foliation. These transversely holomorphic sections are also flat with respect to the Bott partial connection.
