Abstract

Let GG_{\P} be a compact simple Poisson-Lie group equipped with a Poisson structure \P and (M,\o)(M, \o) be a symplectic manifold. Assume that MM carries a Poisson action of GG_{\P} and there is an equivariant moment map in the sense of Lu and Weinstein which acts to the dual Poisson-Lie group GG^*_{\P}, \m:MG\m: M\rightarrow G^*_{\P}. We prove that MM always possesses another symplectic form \to so that the GG-action preserves \o~\tilde{\o} and there is a new moment map μ=e1\m:M\g\mu= e^{-1} \circ \m: M\rightarrow \g^*. Here ee is a universal (independent of MM) invertible equivariant map e:\gGe: \g^*\rightarrow G^*_{\P}. We suggest new short proves of the convexity theorem for the Poisson-Lie moment map, Poisson reduction theorem and the Ginzburg-Weinstein theorem on the isomorphism of \g\g^* and GG^*_{\P} as Poisson spaces.
