We deal with smooth real manifolds as well as complex analytic manifolds as well. It is well known that the concept of star product is powerful enough to produce all Poisson structures on real manifolds. According to [BdM] it is not known…

This work is motivated by a result of Drinfeld on Poisson homogeneous spaces. For each Poisson manifold $P$ with a Poisson action by a Poisson Lie group $G$, we describe a Lie algebroid structure on the direct sum vector bundle $P \times…

We relate the brace construction introduced by Calaque and Willwacher to an additivity functor. That is, we construct a functor from brace algebras associated to an operad $O$ to associative algebras in the category of homotopy…

Theory of differential operators on associative algebras is not extended to the non-associative ones in a straightforward way. We consider differential operators on Lie algebras. A key point is that multiplication in a Lie algebra is its…

We demonstrate how a simple linear-algebraic technique used earlier to compute low-degree cohomology of current Lie algebras, can be utilized to compute other kinds of structures on such Lie algebras, and discuss further generalizations,…

In this paper, we develop a construction of Poisson $n$-Lie algebras arising from $n$-Lie algebras of Jacobians and establish conditions under which this construction yields a Poisson $n$-Lie algebra. We also formulate a general conjecture…

We construct a Banach Poisson-Lie group structure on the unitary group of a separable complex Hilbert space.

Developing ideas based on combinatorial formulas for characteristic classes we introduce the algebra modeling secondary characteristic classes associated to $N$ connections. Certain elements of the algebra correspond to the ordinary and…

We construct the family of algebroid brackets $[\cdot,\cdot]_{c,v}$ on the tangent bundle $T^*M$ to a Poisson manifold $(M,\pi)$ starting from an algebroid bracket of differential forms. We use these brackets to generate Poisson structures…

We develop a general framework for the construction of various derived brackets. We show that suitably deforming the differential of a graded Leibniz algebra extends the derived bracket construction and leads to the notion of strong…

We investigate some infinite dimensional Lie algebras and their associated Poisson structures which arise from a Lie group action on a manifold. If $G$ is a Lie group, $\g$ its Lie algebra and $M$ is a manifold on which $G$ acts, then the…

It is shown that the new Poisson brackets proposed in Part I of this work (J. Math. Phys. 34, 5747(hep-th/9305133)) arise naturally in an extension of the formal variational calculus incorporating divergences. The linear spaces of local…

We survey the many instances of derived bracket construction in differential geometry, Lie algebroid and Courant algebroid theories, and their properties. We recall and compare the constructions of Buttin and Vinogradov, and we prove that…

In this paper we extensively study the notion of Hamiltonian structure for nonabelian differential-difference systems, exploring the link between the different algebraic (in terms of double Poisson algebras and vertex algebras) and…

The Poisson--Weil sigma model, worked out by us recently, stems from gauging a Hamiltonian Lie group symmetry of the target space of the Poisson sigma model. Upon gauge fixing of the BV master action, it yields interesting topological field…

For any double Poisson algebra, we produce a double Poisson vertex algebra using the jet algebra construction. We show that this construction is compatible with the representation functor which associates to any double Poisson (vertex)…

Let $n\ge 1$ and $A$ be a commutative algebra of the form $\boldsymbol k[x_1,x_2,\dots, x_n]/I$ where $\boldsymbol k$ is a field of characteristic $0$ and $I\subseteq \boldsymbol k[x_1,x_2,\dots, x_n]$ is an ideal. Assume that there is a…

We present a class of Poisson structures on trivial extension algebras which generalize some known structures induced by Poisson modules. We show that there exists a one-to-one correspondence between such a class of Poisson structures and…

For any graded bialgebras $A$ and $B$, we define a commutative graded algebra $A_B$ representing the functor of $B$-representations of $A$. When $A$ is a cocommutative graded Hopf algebra and $B$ is a commutative ungraded Hopf algebra, we…

Representations of the Schlessinger-Stasheff's associative homotopy Lie algebras in the spaces of higher-order differential operators are analyzed; in particular, a remarkable identity for the Wronskian determinants is obtained. The…
