Transversals to laminations

Russell Bruce Walker

Vol. 99 (1982), No. 2, 483–490
Abstract

The stable and unstable manifolds of an Anosov diffeomorphism are not leaves of C1-foliation. Instead, their unions comprise two laminations; that is, two C0-foliations which have C1-smooth leaves and continuous nonsingular tangent plane fields. Recently C. Ennis has shown that laminations have transversals at every point. In this note, the existence of transversals is shown to require plane field continuity.
