New Lie groups found for Poisson diffeomorphisms.

A new Poisson bracket defined on Poisson structures with applications to fixed points and cohomology.

The canonical involution of a double (=iterated) tangent bundle may be dualized in different ways to yield relations between the Tulczyjew diffeomorphism, the Poisson anchor associated with the standard symplectic structure on the cotangent space,and the reversal diffeomorphism. We show that the constructions which yie…

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.

In this letter, first we give a decomposition for any Lie-Poisson structure $π_g$ associated to the modular vector. In particular, $π_g$ splits into two compatible Lie-Poisson structures if $dim{g} \leq 3$. As an application, we classified quadratic deformations of Lie-Poisson structures on $\mathbb R^3$ up to linear d…

Graph complex acts on Poisson bi-vectors, producing universal cocycles.

A surface $Σ$ endowed with a Poisson tensor $π$ is known to admit a canonical integration $\mathcal{G}(π)$, which is a 4-dimensional manifold with a (symplectic) groupoid structure. In this short note we show that when $π$ is not an area form on the 2-sphere, then $\mathcal{G}(π)$ is diffeomorphic to the cotangent bund…

We describe the space of Poisson bivectors near a log-symplectic structure up to small diffeomorphisms.

Let (M, π ) be a Poisson manifold. A Poisson submanifold $P \in M$ gives rise to an algebroid $AP \rightarrow P$, to which we associate certain chomology groups which control formal deformations of π around P . Assuming that these groups vanish, we prove that π is formally rigid around P , i.e. any other Poisson struct…

Let U(n) be the unitary group, and $u(n)^*$ the dual of its Lie algebra, equipped with the Kirillov Poisson structure. In their 1983 paper, Guillemin-Sternberg introduced a densely defined Hamiltonian action of a torus of dimension $(n-1)n/2$ on $u(n)^*$, with moment map given by the Gelfand-Zeitlin coordinates. A few …

The study investigates linearizability of Poisson structures on groupoids.

Paper designs Poisson integrators using machine learning.

This paper shows that the time $t$ map of the averaged Euler equations, with Dirichlet, Neumann, and mixed boundary conditions is canonical relative to a Lie-Poisson bracket constructed via a non-smooth reduction for the corresponding diffeomorphism groups. It is also shown that the geodesic spray for Neumann and mixed…

A novel gravity theory based on Poisson Generalized Geometry is investigated. A gravity theory on a Poisson manifold equipped with a Riemannian metric is constructed from a contravariant version of the Levi-Civita connection, which is based on the Lie algebroid of a Poisson manifold. Then, we show that in Poisson Gener…

We describe first integrals of geostrophic equations, which are similar to the enstrophy invariants of the Euler equation for an ideal incompressible fluid. We explain the geometry behind this similarity, give several equivalent definitions of the Poisson structure on the space of smooth densities on a symplectic manif…

Study of Poisson homeomorphisms and rigidity of coisotropic submanifolds.

This paper provides a precise sense in which the time t map for the Euler equations of an ideal fluid in a region in R^n (or a smooth compact n-manifold with boundary) is a Poisson map relative to the Lie-Poisson bracket associated with the group of volume preserving diffeomorphism group. This is interesting and nontri…

New algebraic approach for approximating Hamiltonian dynamics.

We present a geometric construction of central S^1-extensions of the quantomorphism group of a prequantizable, compact, symplectic manifold, and explicitly describe the corresponding lattice of integrable cocycles on the Poisson Lie algebra. We use this to find nontrivial central S^1-extensions of the universal cover o…

Results on derivations and automorphisms of some quantum and classical Poisson algebras, as well as characterizations of manifolds by the Lie structure of such algebras, are revisited and extended. We prove in particular somehow unexpected fact that the algebras of linear differential operators acting on smooth section…

For a Poisson manifold $M$ we develop systematic methods to compute its Picard group $Pic(M)$, i.e., its group of self Morita equivalences. We establish a precise relationship between $Pic(M)$ and the group of gauge transformations up to Poisson diffeomorphisms showing, in particular, that their connected components of…

Geometric framework for Newton's equations on diffeomorphism groups.

Let $Σ$ be a closed surface, $G$ a compact Lie group, with Lie algebra $g$, and $ξ\colon P \to Σ$ a principal $G$-bundle. In earlier work we have shown that the moduli space $N(ξ)$ of central Yang- Mills connections, for appropriate additional data, is stratified by smooth symplectic manifolds and that the holonomy yie…

The covariant canonical formalism is a covariant extension of the traditional canonical formalism of fields. In contrast to the traditional canonical theory, it has a remarkable feature that canonical equations of gauge theories or gravity are not only manifestly Lorentz covariant but also gauge covariant or diffeomorp…

It is known that the topological T-duality exchanges $H$ and $F$-fluxes. In this paper, we reformulate the topological T-duality as an exchange of two Lie algebroids in the generalized tangent bundle. Then, we apply the same formulation to the Poisson-generalized geometry, which is introduced in arXiv:1408.2649 to defi…

We study a new kind of Courant algebroid on Poisson manifolds, which is a variant of the generalized tangent bundle in the sense that the roles of tangent and the cotangent bundle are exchanged. Its symmetry is a semidirect product of $β$-diffeomorphisms and $β$-transformations. It is a starting point of an alternative…

This paper is concerned with symmetries of closed multiplicative 2-forms on Lie groupoids and their infinitesimal counterparts. We use them to study Lie group actions on Dirac manifolds by Dirac diffeomorphisms and their lifts to presymplectic groupoids, building on recent work of Fernandes-Ortega-Ratiu \cite{FOR} on P…

The paper explores the geometric properties of fluid flows and their symmetries.

Quantization on even-dimensional compact manifolds using cell decomposition.

It is proven that a local Lie algebra in the sense of A. A. Kirillov determines the base manifold up to a diffeomorphism provided the anchor map is nowhere-vanishing. In particular, the Lie algebras of nowhere-vanishing Poisson or Jacobi brackets determine manifolds. This result has been proven for different types of d…

Introduces a new operator generating higher Koszul brackets on differential forms.

We introduce G_2-vector fields, Rochesterian 1-forms and Rochesterian vector fields on manifolds with a closed G_2-structure as analogues of symplectic vector fields, Hamiltonian functions and Hamiltonian vector fields respectively, and we show that the spaces of G_2-vector fields and of Rochesterian vector fields are …

Novel discretization of Euler equations for incompressible fluids.

Abstract: Extends Drinfeld correspondence to infinite-dimensional Lie groups.

The Madelung transform connects quantum mechanics and hydrodynamics.

In this paper the dynamics of the classical chiral $QCD_{2}$ currents is studied. We describe how the dynamics of the theory can be summarized in an equation of the Lax form, thereby demonstrating the existence of an infinite set of conserved quantities. Next, the $r$ matrix of a fundamental Poisson relation is obtaine…

VB-groupoids and algebroids are vector bundle objects in the categories of Lie groupoids and Lie algebroids respectively, and they are related via the Lie functor. VB-groupoids and algebroids play a prominent role in Poisson and related geometries. Additionally, they can be seen as models for vector bundles over singul…

We construct a three-dimensional topological sigma model which is induced from a generalized complex structure on a target generalized complex manifold. This model is constructed from maps from a three-dimensional manifold $X$ to an arbitrary generalized complex manifold $M$. The theory is invariant under the diffeomor…

Paper proposes a new approach to optimal transport for vector and matrix densities.

Geometrically proves twisted Poincaré duality for orientable Poisson manifolds.

We propose a Poisson-Lie analog of the symplectic induction procedure, using an appropriate Poisson generalization of the reduction of symplectic manifolds with symmetry. Having as basic tools the equivariant momentum maps of Poisson actions, the double group of a Poisson-Lie group and the reduction of Poisson manifold…

We exhibit two three-parameter families of locally conformal symplectic forms on the solvmanifold $M_{n,k}$ considered in [1], and show, using the Hodge-de Rham theory for the Lichnerowicz cohomology that that they are not $d_ω$ exact, i.e. their Lichnerowicz classes are non-trivial (Theorem 1). This has several import…

New Poisson structures on algebras linked to derivatives.

We semiclassicalise the theory of quantum group principal bundles to the level of Poisson geometry. The total space $X$ is a Poisson manifold with Poisson-compatible contravariant connection, the fibre is a Poisson-Lie group in the sense of Drinfeld with bicovariant Poisson-compatible contravariant connection, and the …

We construct a Poisson isomorphism between the formal Poisson manifolds g^* and G^*, where g is a finite dimensional quasitriangular Lie bialgebra. Here g^* is equipped with its Lie-Poisson (or Kostant-Kirillov-Souriau) structure, and G^* with its Poisson-Lie structure. We also quantize Poisson-Lie dynamical r-matrices…
