Abstract

Using tools from Dirac geometry and through an explicit construction, we show that every Poisson homogeneous space of any Poisson Lie group admits an integration to a symplectic groupoid. Our theorem follows from a more general result which relates, for a principal bundle MM/HM\to M/H, integrations of a Dirac structure on M/HM/H to HH-admissible integrations of its pullback Dirac structure on MM by pre-symplectic groupoids. Our construction gives a distinguished class of explicit real or holomorphic pre-symplectic and symplectic groupoids over semi-simple Lie groups and some of their homogeneous spaces, including their symmetric spaces, conjugacy classes, and flag varieties. In a more general framework, we also show integrability of all homogeneous spaces of LA{\mathcal{LA}}^\vee-Lie groups in the sense of E. Meinrenken.
