QP perspective on Poisson-Lie T-duality topology changes.

We give a construction of a Poisson transform mapping density valued differential forms on generalized flag manifolds to differential forms on the corresponding Riemannian symmetric spaces, which can be described entirely in terms of finite dimensional representations of reductive Lie groups. Moreover, we will explicit…

The paper studies the Poisson transform of differential forms on hyperbolic spaces.

We extend the Falceto-Zambon version of Marsden-Ratiu Poisson reduction to Poisson quasi-Nijenhuis structures with background on manifolds. We define gauge transformations of Poisson quasi-Nijenhuis structures with background, study some of their properties and show that they are compatible with reduction procedure. We…

Transformers solve Poisson means estimation via empirical Bayes.

Estimates for plate eigenvalues with nonzero Poisson's ratio.

We define gauge transformations of Jacobi structures on a manifold. This is related to gauge transformations of Poisson structures via the Poissonization. Finally, we discuss how the contact structure of a contact groupoid is effected by a gauge transformation of the Jacobi structure on its base.

The version of Marsden-Ratiu reduction theorem for Nambu-Poisson manifolds by a regular distribution has been studied by Ib$\acute{\text{a}}\tilde{\text{n}}$ez et al. In this paper we show that the reduction is always ensured unless the distribution is zero. Next we extend the more general Falceto-Zambon Poisson reduct…

We present a new construction for Poisson transforms between vector bundle valued differential forms on homogeneous parabolic geometries and the corresponding Riemannian symmetric space, which can be described in terms of finite dimensional representations of reductive Lie groups. In particular, we use these operators …

We study gauge transformations of Dirac structures and the relationship between gauge and Morita equivalences of Poisson manifolds. We describe how the symplectic structure of a symplectic groupoid is affected by a gauge transformation of the Poisson structure on its identity section, and prove that gauge-equivalent in…

Twelve numerical methods for Poisson geometry concepts.

We present a computational toolkit for (local) Poisson-Nijenhuis calculus on manifolds. Our python module $\textsf{PoissonGeometry}$ implements our algorithms, and accompanies this paper. We include two examples of how our methods can be used, one for gauge transformations of Poisson bivectors in dimension 3, and a sec…

This paper constructs Poisson transforms and analyzes their properties on complex hyperbolic spaces.

We present a contact transformation of the generalized Hunter--Saxton equation to the Euler--Poisson equation with special values of the Ovsiannikov invariants. We also find the general solution for the generalized Hunter--Saxton equation.

We present a machine learning model for the analysis of randomly generated discrete signals, modeled as the points of an inhomogeneous, compound Poisson point process. Like the wavelet scattering transform introduced by Mallat, our construction is naturally invariant to translations and reflections, but it decouples th…

Introduces $b$-Lie groups and studies their symplectic structures and reductions.

We identify the cotangent bundle Lie algebroid of a Poisson homogeneous space G/H of a Poisson Lie group G as a quotient of a transformation Lie algebroid over G. As applications, we describe the modular vector fields of G/H, and we identify the Poisson cohomology of G/H with coefficients in powers of its canonical lin…

The Madelung transform connects quantum mechanics and hydrodynamics.

Researchers transform equations and define integral operators on a ball.

Reduces field theories using Poisson-Poincaré method.

We describe an averaging procedure on a Dirac manifold, with respect to a class of compatible actions of a compact Lie group. Some averaging theorems on the existence of invariant realizations of Poisson structures around (singular) symplectic leaves are derived. We show that the construction of coupling Dirac structur…

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…

We address the problem of classifying discrete differential-geometric Poisson brackets (dDGPBs) of any fixed order on target space of dimension 1. It is proved that these Poisson brackets (PBs) are in one-to-one correspondence with the intersection points of certain projective hypersurfaces. In addition, they can be re…

This work is motivated by a result of Drinfeld on Poisson homogeneous spaces. For each Poisson manifold $P$ with a Poisson action by a Poisson Lie group $G$, we describe a Lie algebroid structure on the direct sum vector bundle $P \times {\frak g} \oplus T^*P$, where ${\frak g}$ is the Lie algebra of $G$. It is built o…

V1 cortex reconstructs images as Poisson equation solutions with varying weights.

The paper establishes a Poisson Poincaré-Dulac theorem for Poisson-flat connections.

Contrary to standard statistical models, unnormalised statistical models only specify the likelihood function up to a constant. While such models are natural and popular, the lack of normalisation makes inference much more difficult. Here we show that inferring the parameters of a unnormalised model on a space $Ω$ can …

Develops Poisson structures on weak Sobolev loop spaces for integrable systems.

SL(N,C) is the phase space of the Poisson SU(N). We calculate explicitly the symplectic structure of SL(N,C), define an analogue of the Hamiltonian of the free motion on SU(N) and solve the corresponding equations of motion. Velocity is related to the momentum by a non-linear Legendre transformation.

We study a class of Poisson tensors on a fibered manifold which are compatible with the fiber bundle structure by the so-called almost coupling condition. In the case of a $5$-dimensional orientable fibered manifolds with $2$-dimensional bases, we describe a global behavior of almost coupling Poisson tensors and their …

We provide a complete list of two- and three-component Poisson structures of hydrodynamic type with degenerate metric, and study their homogeneous deformations. In the non-degenerate case any such deformation is trivial, that is, can be obtained via Miura transformation. We demonstrate that in the degenerate case this …

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…

New hierarchies and equations derived from Poisson structures.

A relation between gravity on Poisson manifolds proposed in arXiv:1508.05706 and Einstein gravity is investigated. The compatibility of the Poisson and Riemann structures defines a unique connection, the contravariant Levi-Civita connection, and leads to the idea of the contravariant gravity. The Einstein-Hilbert-type …

The usual formulations of time-dependent mechanics start from a given splitting $Y=R\times M$ of the coordinate bundle $Y\to R$. From physical viewpoint, this splitting means that a reference frame has been chosen. Obviously, such a splitting is broken under reference frame transformations and time-dependent canonical …

Develops Poisson and Dirac manifolds of compact types with applications.

In many Lagrangian field theories one has a Poisson bracket defined on the space of local functionals. We find necessary and sufficient conditions for a transformation on the space of local functionals to be canonical in three different cases. These three cases depend on the specific dimensions of the vector bundle of …

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…

We induce a Poisson algebra $\{\cdot,\cdot\}_{\mathcal{C}_{n,N}}$ on the configuration space $\mathcal{C}_{n,N}$ of $N$ twisted polygons in $\mathbb{RP}^{n-1}$ from the swapping algebra \cite{L12}, which is found coincide with Faddeev-Takhtajan-Volkov algebra for $n=2$. There is another Poisson algebra $\{\cdot,\cdot\}…

The paper extends Strichartz's conjecture to spinor bundles over real hyperbolic spaces.

The problem of Poisson denoising appears in various imaging applications, such as low-light photography, medical imaging and microscopy. In cases of high SNR, several transformations exist so as to convert the Poisson noise into an additive i.i.d. Gaussian noise, for which many effective algorithms are available. Howev…

We propose an extension of n-ary Nambu-Poisson bracket to superspace R^{n|m} and construct by means of superdeterminant a family of Nambu-Poisson algebras of even degree functions, where the parameter of this family is an invertible transformation of Grassmann coordinates in superspace R^{n|m}. We prove in the case of …

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…

We classify the dispersive Poisson brackets with one dependent variable and two independent variables, with leading order of hydrodynamic type, up to Miura transformations. We show that, in contrast to the case of a single independent variable for which a well known triviality result exists, the Miura equivalence class…

Starting with a Lie algebroid ${\cal A}$ over a space $M$ we lift its action to the canonical transformations on the affine bundle ${\cal R}$ over the cotangent bundle $T^*M$. Such lifts are classified by the first cohomology $H^1({\cal A})$. The resulting object is a Hamiltonian algebroid ${\cal A}^H$ over ${\cal R}$ …

Quantizes the relationship between Koszul and Schouten brackets in Poisson geometry.

Let $G$ be a semisimple Lie group with finite center, $K\subset G$ a maximal compact subgroup, and $P\subset G$ a parabolic subgroup. Following ideas of P.Y.\ Gaillard, one may use $G$-invariant differential forms on $G/K\times G/P$ to construct $G$-equivariant Poisson transforms mapping differential forms on $G/P$ to …

It is a classical fact in Poisson geometry that the cotangent bundle of a Poisson manifold has the structure of a Lie algebroid. Manifestations of this structure are the Lichnerowicz differential on multivector fields (calculating Poisson cohomology) and the Koszul bracket of differential forms. "Raising indices" by th…
