On the integration of Manin pairs
Abstract
It is a remarkable fact that the integrability of a Poisson manifold to a symplectic groupoid depends only on the integrability of its cotangent Lie algebroid : The source-simply connected Lie groupoid integrating automatically acquires a multiplicative symplectic 2-form. More generally, a similar result holds for the integration of Lie bialgebroids to Poisson groupoids, as well as in the `quasi' settings of Dirac structures and quasi-Lie bialgebroids. In this article, we will place these results into a general context of Manin pairs , thereby obtaining a simple geometric approach to these integration results. We also clarify the case where the groupoid integrating is not source-simply connected. Furthermore, we obtain a description of Hamiltonian spaces for Poisson groupoids and quasi-symplectic groupoids within this formalism.
