Abstract

In Kontsevich's graph calculus, internal vertices of directed graphs are inhabited by multi-vectors, e.g., Poisson bi-vectors; the Nambu-determinant Poisson brackets are differential-polynomial in the Casimir(s) and density ϱ\varrho times Levi-Civita symbol. We resolve the old vertices into subgraphs such that every new internal vertex contains one Casimir or one Levi-Civita symbol×ϱ{}\times\varrho. Using this micro-graph calculus, we show that Kontsevich's tetrahedral γ3\gamma_3-flow on the space of Nambu-determinant Poisson brackets over R3\mathbb{R}^3 is a Poisson coboundary: we realize the trivializing vector field X\smash{\vec{X}} over R3\smash{\mathbb{R}^3} using micro-graphs. This X\smash{\vec{X}} projects to the known trivializing vector field for the γ3\gamma_3-flow over R2\smash{\mathbb{R}^2}.
