Abstract: The aim of the paper is to construct some Godbillon-Vey classes of a family of regular foliations, defined in the paper. These classes are cohomology classes on the manifold or on suitable open subsets. Some examples are also considered.

Review text

The authors study a very special type of singular foliations whose leaves are locally leaves of a regular foliation. In this particular case they define Godbillon-Vey forms and cohomology classes which can be interpreted as the Godbillon-Vey classes of suitable regular foliations associated to the studied singular foliation.
