Abstract: We study codimension one foliations in projective space PP^n over CC by looking at its first order perturbations: unfoldings and deformations. We give special attention to foliations of rational and logarithmic type. For a differential form omega defining a codimension one foliation, we present a graded module UU(omega), related to the first order unfoldings of omega. If omega is a generic form of rational or logarithmic type, as a first application of the construction of UU(omega), we classify the first order deformations that arise from first order unfoldings. Then, we count the number of isolated points in the singular set of omega, in terms of a Hilbert polynomial associated to UU(omega). We review the notion of regularity of omega in terms of a long complex of graded modules that we also introduce in this work. We use this complex to prove that, for generic rational and logarithmic foliations, omega is regular if and only if every unfolding is trivial up to isomorphism.
