Reeb foliation is a concept in differential topology and dynamical systems that arises in the study of contact manifolds. It is named after the mathematician Georges Reeb. In the context of contact geometry, a contact manifold \\( (M, \\alpha) \\) consists of a manifold \\( M \\) equipped with a contact form \\( \\alpha \\), which is a differential one-form that satisfies a certain non-degeneracy condition.
