Let \(\omega\) be a smooth closed one-form on a connected smooth closed orientable manifold \(M\). Outside the singular set, the one-form \(\omega\) defines a codimension-one foliation \(\mathcal{F}_\omega\). As the author points out, such foliations find applications in physics, e.g. in supergravity theory. It is known, that a leaf of a codimension-one foliation is either \textsl{proper} (i.e. locally closed, hence an embedded regular submanifold), \textsl{locally dense} (i.e. the closure has non-empty interior), or \textsl{exceptional}. In particular, a compact leaf is proper. In this well written paper, the author makes a study of the number of locally dense and the number of compact leaves of a closed one-form foliation. In the main results, she proves bounds on the total number of homologically independent compact leaves and on the total number of connected components of the locally dense leaves.
