On the Cech bicomplex associated with foliated structures
Annales de l'Institut Fourier, Volume 28 (1978) no. 3, pp. 217-224.

For a codimension q foliation on a manifold, η×(dη) q defines the Godbillon-Vey class. We show that η itself defines a certain cohomology class, via the Cech bicomplex.

Pour un feuilletage de codimension q sur une variété, η×(dη) q définit la classe de Godbillon-Vey. On démontre que η définit une certaine classe de cohomologie, via la bicomplexe de Cech.
