Abstract:
We construct a complete topological invariant of foliations of finite type defined by smooth functions on two-dimensional noncompact orientable manifolds. In particular, we describe a complete topological classification of noncompact bifurcations of such foliations. We establish a natural one-to-one correspondence between the set of all such bifurcations and the set of oriented coloured graphs of a special form. As a consequence, we obtain the Liouville and trajectory classifications of Hamiltonian systems of finite type on noncompact two-dimensional manifolds.
