We construct Poisson bracket relations between the operators which generate the chiral ring of the Coulomb branch of certain $3d$ $\mathcal{N}=4$ quiver gauge theories. In the case where the Coulomb branch is a free space, $ADE$ Klein…
We introduce a symmetric Poisson bracket that allows us to describe anticommuting fields on a classical level in the same way as commuting fields, without the use of Grassmann variables. By means of a simple example, we show how the Dirac…
The covariant canonical formalism is a covariant extension of the traditional canonical formalism of fields. In contrast to the traditional canonical theory, it has a remarkable feature that canonical equations of gauge theories or gravity…
In this note the long standing problem of the definition of a Poisson bracket in the framework of a multisymplectic formulation of classical field theory is solved. The new bracket operation can be applied to forms of arbitary degree.…
We establish a class of sufficient conditions, ensuring that a sequence of multiple integrals with respect to a free Poisson measure converges to a semicircular limit. We use this result to construct a set of explicit counterexamples,…
In field theory the Poisson bracket $\{F, \mathcal{H}\}$ between an arbitrary function $F$ and the system Hamiltonian $\mathcal{H}$ acquires odd contributions. Here a modification is worked out to remove those terms, which leads to a…
Recently it has been shown that antibrackets may be expressed in terms of Poisson brackets and vice versa for commuting functions in the original bracket. Here we also introduce generalized brackets involving higher antibrackets or higher…
The purpose of this paper is to discuss a number of issues that crop up in the computation of Poisson brackets in field theories. This is specially important for the canonical approaches to quantization and, in particular, for loop quantum…
The coupling of gravity to dust helps to discover simple quadratic combinations of the gravitational super-Hamiltonian and supermomentum whose Poisson brackets strongly vanish. This leads to a new form of vacuum constraints which generate a…
This work contains a brief and elementary exposition of the foundations of Poisson and symplectic geometries, with an emphasis on applications for Hamiltonian systems with second-class constraints. In particular, we clarify the geometric…
In the study of alternative or extended theories of gravity, Dirac's Hamiltonian constraint algorithm is invaluable for enumerating the propagating modes and gauge symmetries. For gravity, this canonical approach is frequently applied as a…
We present a general definition of the Poisson bracket between differential forms on the extended multiphase space appearing in the geometric formulation of first order classical field theories and, more generally, on exact multisymplectic…
In this paper we introduce two classes of Poisson brackets on algebras (or on sheaves of algebras). We call them locally free and nonsingular Poisson brackets. Using the Fedosov's method we prove that any locally free nonsingular Poisson…
We complete the program started in two companion papers of defining a Poisson bracket structure on the space of solutions of the equations of motion of first order Hamiltonian field theories. The case of General Relativity is addressed by…
Poisson bracket relations for generators of canonical transformations are derived directly from the Galilei and Poincar\'e groups of changes of space-time coordinates. The method is simple but rigorous. The meaning of each step is clear…
When the vacuum Einstein equations are cast in the form of hamiltonian evolution equations, the initial data lie in the cotangent bundle of the manifold M\Sigma\ of riemannian metrics on a Cauchy hypersurface \Sigma. As in every lagrangian…
In treatments of electromagnetism, it is often tacitly assumed that the vector potentials of the field and their conjugate momenta satisfy the canonical Poisson bracket relations, despite the fact that the components of the vector potential…
This paper investigates different Poisson structures that have been proposed to give a Hamiltonian formulation to evolution equations issued from fluid mechanics. Our aim is to explore the main brackets which have been proposed and to…
An explicit Lorentz covariant formulation of the canonical theory for classical fields is established on a space-like hypersurface. Hamilton's equations and a Poisson bracket are defined on the space-like hypersurface. The Poisson bracket…
Any canonical quantum theory can be understood to arise from the compatibility of the statistical geometry of distinguishable observations with the canonical Poisson structure of Hamiltonian dynamics. This geometric perspective offers a…
