Singular holomorphic foliations by curves. II: Negative Lyapunov exponent

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Let Fc be a holomorphic foliation by Riemann surfaces defined on a compact complex projective surface X satisfying the following two conditions: (1) the singular points of Fc are all hyperbolic; (2) Fc is Brody hyperbolic. Then we establish cohomological formulas for the Lyapunov exponent and the Poincar'e mass of an extremal positive ddc-closed current tangent to Fc. If, moreover, there is no nonzero positive closed current tangent to Fc, then we show that the Lyapunov exponent chi(Fc) of Fc, which is, by definition, the Lyapunov exponent of the unique normalized positive ddc-closed current tangent to Fc, is a strictly negative real number. As an application, we compute the Lyapunov exponent of a generic foliation with a given degree in mathbbP2.
