On deforming confoliations [PDF]
The authors present a parabolic deformation of \(1\)-forms on compact, orientable, odd dimensional manifolds. The corresponding flow produces contact forms from the class of initial conditions called ``conductive confoliations''. This technique gives them the possibility to construct contact forms on the product of contact manifolds with surfaces.
