Abstract

Let {Xθ} be a family of rotated singular real foliations in the Riemann sphere which is the result of the rotation of a meromorphic vector field X with zeros and poles of multiplicity one. We prove that the set of bifurcation values, in the circle {θ}, is for each family a set with at most a finite number of accumulation points. A condition which implies a finite number of bifurcation values is given. We also show that the property of having an infinite set of bifurcation values defines open but not dense sets in the space of meromorphic vector fields with fixed degree.
