Invariant Surfaces for Toric Type Foliations in Dimension Three

A foliation is of toric type when it has a combinatorial reduction of singularities. We show that every toric type foliation on (C3, 0), without saddle-nodes, has invariant surface. We extend the argument of Cano-Cerveau, done for the nondicritical case, to the compact dicritical components of the exceptional divisor. These components are projective toric surfaces and the isolated invariant branches of the induced foliation extend to global curves. We build the invariant surface as a germ along the singular locus and those global invariant curves. The result of Ortiz-Rosales-Voronin, about the distribution of invariant curves in dimension two, is a key argument in our proof.
