Abstract: In this article we introduce a generalization of the Newton transformation to the case of a system of endomorphisms. We show that it can be used in the context of extrinsic geometry of foliations and distributions yielding new integral formulas containing generalized extrinsic curvatures.

Review text

The classical Newton transformation of an endomorphism provides a way to linearize the symmetric functions \(\sigma_r\) (for \(r>1\)). The authors generalize transformations as such, first for systems of endomorphisms and then in the context of foliation theory. They show that several integral formulas can be recovered from this generalization. Such formulas are used in the literature to study geometric and analytic properties of foliations.
