Preferred term

foliation  

Definition(s)

  • In topology, a foliation is a decoration of a manifold in which the manifold is partitioned into sheets of some lower dimension, and the sheets are locally parallel. More technically, the foliated manifold is locally homeomorphic to a vector space decorated by co-sets of a subspace.
