Abstract
Compact, C 2 -foliated manifolds of codimension one, having all leaves proper, are shown to be C ∞ -smoothable. More precisely, such a foliated manifold is homeomorphic to one of class C ∞ . The corresponding statement is false for foliations with nonproper leaves. In that case, there are topological distinctions between smoothness of class C r and of class C r+1 for every nonnegative integer r.
