You only waited 1 hour before you reposted it here, and you got a good answer on MSE not too long afterwards, so "did not get too much attention" is not a fair assessment. | |
| May 25, 2018 at 14:00 | comment | added | j.c. | Here it is on MSE: math.stackexchange.com/questions/2795410/rank-of-a-distribution . First, just because a question gets no attention on MSE, that does not mean that it is suitable for this site. In this case, I agree with the above commentators that this question is not of research level. | |
| May 25, 2018 at 13:32 | comment | added | Gibbs | Actually I have already posted it on MSE, but did not get too much attention. That is why I tried here. | |
| May 25, 2018 at 13:29 | comment | added | Alex M. | @BenMcKay: I flagged this post for migration to MSE, but then I saw that it got 3 upvotes and an answer with 6 upvotes, so fearing a "declined" status I withdrew my flag. | |

| May 25, 2018 at 10:38 | comment | added | Ben McKay | The leaves of a distribution $S$ on a manifold $M$ are the maximal dimensional connected immersed submanifolds $L \subset M$ whose tangent spaces $T_p L$ at any point $p \in L$ are the subspaces $T_p L = S_p$. Leaves might not exist, but if there is a leaf of $S$ through a point $p$, then there is a unique leaf of $S$ through $p$. | |
