Abstract
Let M be a connected oriented closed n-manifold. A riemannian flow\(\mathfrak{F}\) on M is an oriented one dimensional foliation which admits a bundle-like metric.
We give a caracterization of isometric flows as riemannian flows whose basic cohomology H n−1b (M,\(\mathfrak{F}\)) is non trivial in degree (n−1). A second caracterization involves the triviality of the central sheaf.
We show also that\(\mathfrak{F}\) has a section if and only if H n−1b (M,\(\mathfrak{F}\)) has a non trivial image in Hn−1(M).
