Review text

For foliations \({\mathcal F}_ i\) on smooth manifolds \(M_ i\) determined by the actions of connected Lie groups \(H_ i\) \((i=1,2)\), obstructions are established, in terms of a geometric invariant of the actions, to the existence of a diffeomorphism between \({\mathcal F}_ 1\) and \({\mathcal F}_ 2\). In a long development using cohomology between cocycles of group actions [\textit{R. J. Zimmer}, Isr. J. Math. 35, 289-300 (1980; Zbl 0442.28026)] the problem is approached via the following computation: Let \(G\) be a connected semisimple Lie group without compact factors, with finite center, let \(\Gamma\) be an irreducible discrete subgroup of \(G\) such that \(G/\Gamma\) admits a finite invariant measure, and let \(H\) be a closed noncompact subgroup of \(G\). Then the algebraic hull of the \(H\)-action on \(G/\Gamma\) coincides with the algebraic hull of \(\text{Ad}_ G(H)\).
