Poisson Structures: Towards a Classification
G. Marmo

Modern Physics Letters A, 1993

In the present note we give an explicit description of certain class of Poisson structures. The methods lead to a classification of Poisson structures in low dimensions and suggest a possible approach for higher dimensions.

Some Algebraic and Geometric Structures on Poisson Manifolds
Zaza Tevdoradze

2014

Abstract. In this paper we study some algebraic properties of harmonic forms on Poisson manifolds. It is well known that in the classical case (on Riemannian manifolds) the product of harmonic forms is not harmonic. Here we describe the algebraic and analytical mechanisms explaining this fact. We also obtain a condition under which the product of de Rham cohomology classes, which includes harmonic representatives, can be represented by a harmonic form.

A New Construction of Poisson Manifolds
Alberto Ibort

Journal of Symplectic Geometry, 2004

A new technique to construct Poisson manifolds inspired both in surgery ideas used to define Poisson structures on 3-manifolds and in Gompf's surgery construction for symplectic manifolds, is presented. As an application of these ideas it is proved that for all n ≥ d ≥ 4, d even, any finitely presentable group is the fundamental group of a n-dimensional orientable closed Poisson manifold of constant rank d. The unimodularity of some of the Poisson structures constructed is studied.

Homogeneous Poisson structures
Fereshteh Malek

Bulletin of the Australian Mathematical Society, 1996

In this paper we provide an algebraic definition for the Schouten product and give a decomposition for homogeneous Poisson structures in any ra-dimensional vector space. A large class of n-homogeneous Poisson structures in R k is also characterised.

The momentum map in Poisson geometry
Juan-pablo Ortega

American Journal of Mathematics, 2009

Every action on a Poisson manifold by Poisson diffeomorphisms lifts to a Hamiltonian action on its symplectic groupoid which has a canonically defined momentum map. We study various properties of this momentum map as well as its use in reduction.

Introduction to Poisson supermanifolds
Alberto Ibort

Differential Geometry and its Applications, 1991

A notion of super-Poisson structure in the category of (real) graded manifolds is presented and some of its properties are discussed. Some examples of Poisson supermanifolds are given. The structure of the cotangent supermanifold of a Lie supergroup is described and an extension of the Lie-Poisson reduction theorem for ordinary Lie groups is derived.

Poisson Structures and Potentials
Arkady Berenstein

Lie Groups, Geometry, and Representation Theory

We introduce a notion of weakly log-canonical Poisson structures on positive varieties with potentials. Such a Poisson structure is log-canonical up to terms dominated by the potential. To a compatible real form of a weakly log-canonical Poisson variety we assign an integrable system on the product of a certain real convex polyhedral cone (the tropicalization of the variety) and a compact torus. We apply this theory to the dual Poisson-Lie group G * of a simply-connected semisimple complex Lie group G. We define a positive structure and potential on G * and show that the natural Poisson-Lie structure on G * is weakly log-canonical with respect to this positive structure and potential. For K ⊂ G the compact real form, we show that the real form K * ⊂ G * is compatible and prove that the corresponding integrable system is defined on the product of the decorated string cone and the compact torus of dimension 1 2 (dim G − rank G).

2008

Poisson geometry provides a unified language for researchers working in various areas of mathematics, physics and engineering. The Poisson schools and conferences are major events organized on a two-year basis since 1998. They bring together leading experts and young researchers to address the important questions. Relying on previous experience we expect over 150 participants. As in the previous editions, we plan publication of refereed proceedings for this major event. This year, the Poisson school and conference will also play the role of opening event of the Poisson semester at the Bernoulli center.

Geometry of Poisson structures
Zakaria Giunashvili

Georgian Mathematical Journal, 1995

The purpose of this paper is to consider certain mechanisms of the emergence of Poisson structures on a manifold. We shall also establish some properties of the bivector field that defines a Poisson structure and investigate geometrical structures on the manifold induced by such fields. Further, we shall touch upon the dualism between bivector fields and differential 2-forms.

Applications of Poisson Geometry to Physical Problems
Darryl Holm

arXiv: Dynamical Systems, 2011

We consider Lagrangians in Hamilton's principle defined on the tangent space $TG$ of a Lie group $G$. Invariance of such a Lagrangian under the action of $G$ leads to the symmetry-reduced Euler-Lagrange equations called the Euler-Poincar\'e equations. In this case, the invariant Lagrangian is defined on the Lie algebra of the group and its Euler-Poincar\'e equations are defined on the dual Lie algebra, where dual is defined by the operation of taking variational derivative. On the Hamiltonian side, the Euler-Poincar\'e equations are Lie-Poisson and they possess accompanying momentum maps, which encode both their conservation laws and the geometry of their solution space. The standard Euler-Poincar\'e examples are treated, including particle dynamics, the rigid body, the heavy top and geodesic motion on Lie groups. Additional topics deal with Fermat's principle, the $\mathbb{R}^3$ Poisson bracket, polarized optical traveling waves, deformable bodies (Riemann e...
