Abstract

A symplectic groupoid G.:=(G1G0)G.:=(G_1 \rightrightarrows G_0) determines a Poisson structure on G0G_0. In this case, we call G.G. a symplectic groupoid of the Poisson manifold G0G_0. However, not every Poisson manifold MM has such a symplectic groupoid. This keeps us away from some desirable goals: for example, establishing Morita equivalence in the category of all Poisson manifolds. In this paper, we construct symplectic Weinstein groupoids which provide a solution to the above problem (Theorem \ref{main}). More precisely, we show that a symplectic Weinstein groupoid induces a Poisson structure on its base manifold, and that to every Poisson manifold there is an associated symplectic Weinstein groupoid.
