Leaves of Markov local minimal sets in foliations of codimension one

Abstract

The authors continue their study of exceptional local minimal sets with holonomy modeled on symbolic dynamics (called Markov LMS [C-C 1]). Here, an unpublished theorem of G. Duminy, on the topology of semiproper exceptional leaves, is extended to every leaf, semiproper or not, of a Markov LMS. Other topological results on these leaves are also obtained.
