Projection to trivial reduced cohomology class in $L^2(\mathbb{R})$
Given that I have had no success on the mathematics stackexchange (see here), I've decided to try my luck here.
I am attempting to solve the following exercise (original formulation here), which to my ...

Leafwise de Rham cohomology (A true definition of differential forms along leaves)
For a foliated space $(M, \mathcal{F})$, one associate a leafwise de Rham cohomology. This cohomology and trace-class operators on this cohomology and trace interpretations for closed orbits of ...

Vanishing product of a closed and coclosed form on a Riemannian manifold
For a (compact) Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$, can it happen that for a non-zero form $\text{d}^*\omega$, and a smooth function $f$ such that $\text{d}f \neq 0$, we can have
$$
\text{d}f \wedge \text{d}^...

Can every De Rham cohomology class be represented by a closed form $\alpha$ with $L_X \alpha=0$
Assume that $M$ is a manifold and $X$ is a vector field on $M$.
Is it true to say that every closed form is De Rham-cohomologue to a closed form $\alpha$ with $L_X \alpha =0$?
