Abstract: In this paper, we study affine manifolds endowed with linear foliations. These are foliations defined by vector subspaces invariant by the linear holonomy. We show that an n-dimensional compact, complete, and oriented affine manifold endowed with a codimension 1 linear foliation calF is homeomophic to the n-dimensional torus if the leaves of calF are simply connected. Let (M,ablaM) be a 3-dimensional compact affine manifold endowed with a codimension 1 linear foliation. We prove that (M,ablaM) has a finite cover which is homeomorphic to the total space of a bundle over the circle if its developing map is injective, and has a convex image.
