Abstract: We prove the non-existence of real analytic Levi flat hypersurface whose complement is 1-convex and Levi foliation is transversely affine in compact Kahler surfaces.


Transversely affine foliations are a special class of foliations, namely they are characterized by the change of coordinates of their foliated atlas to be affine in the transverse direction. In [\textit{G. Cousin} and \textit{J. V. Pereira}, Math. Res. Lett. 21, No. 5, 985--1014 (2014; Zbl 1306.32025)], the authors discussed holomorphic foliation of complex codimension one and described the transverse affine structure in terms of a meromorphic connection of the normal bundle to the foliation, thus permitting to give a classification of those foliations in complex projective manifolds. In the present paper, the authors study transversely affine holomorphic foliations coming from a real analytic Levi flat hypersurface in complex Kähler surfaces. This means that the hypersurface is locally foliated by complex analytic hypersurfaces; the so-called Levi foliation of the hypersurface. The main result of the authors is as follows: Theorem 1. Let \(X\) be a compact Kähler surface and \(M\) a real analytic closed Levi flat hypersurface whose complement is 1-convex. Then, the Levi foliation of \(M\) cannot be transversely affine. The main idea of the proof is to contradict the 1-convexity of the complement by showing the existence of Levi flat hypersurfaces close enough to the original one. This is achieved by using the theory of integrable connection of vector bundles over complex manifold. The article might be seen as a continuation of [\textit{C. C. González}, Ann. Inst. Fourier 67, No. 6, 2423--2462 (2017; Zbl 1404.32073)].
