2026-07-072026-07-07http://salesiana.dossiersoluciones.com/handle/123456789/119844In this paper we address the following questions: (i) Let $C\subset \mathbb C^2$ be an orbit of a polynomial vector field which has finite total Gaussian curvature. Is $C$ contained in an algebraic curve? (ii) What can be said of a polynomial vector field which has a finitely curved transcendent orbit? We give a positive answer to (i) under some non-degeneracy conditions on the singularities of the projective foliation induced by the vector field. For vector fields with a slightly more general class of singularities we prove a classification result that captures rational pull-backs of Poincaré-Dulac normal forms.Complex VariablesDifferential Geometry32M25, 53C42text
