Abstract:

The aim of this article is to give a new dynamical proof of the Ferrand–Obata theorem when the manifold is compact. This will give us a generalisation of this theorem to transversally conformal foliations of codimension greater than three and constant basic functions.

Keywords: conformal geometry; foliations
