    Total transversal scalar curvatures of Hopf \(\alpha\)-foliations (English)
    0 references
    The author computes the total transversal scalar curvature of a Hopf \(\alpha\)-foliation \(\mathcal{F}^{\alpha}\) on the unit 3-sphere \(S^{3}\) and shows that it is equal to \(16 \pi ^{2}\) and it is independent on \(\alpha\). On the other hand, if \( \alpha , \beta \geq 1\) and \(\alpha \neq \beta\) , then the foliations \(\mathcal{F}^{\alpha}\) and \(\mathcal{F}^{\beta}\) are not isospectral.
