Levi decomposition for smooth Poisson structures

Differential Geometry 2007-05-23 v5 Symplectic Geometry

Abstract

We prove the existence of a local smooth Levi decomposition for smooth Poisson structures and Lie algebroids near a singular point. In the appendix of this paper, we show an abstract Nash-Moser normal form theorem, which generalizes our Levi decomposition result and which may be helpful in the study of other smooth normal form problems.
