In this contribution we review some of the interplay between sigma models in theoretical physics and novel geometrical structures such as Lie (n-)algebroids. The first part of the article contains the mathematical background, the definition…

We show that a Lie algebroid on a stratified manifold is integrable if, and only if, its restriction to each strata is integrable. These results allow us to construct a large class of algebras of pseudodifferential operators.

In this paper, we introduce right-invariant Poisson-Nijenhuis Structures on Lie groupoids and their infinitesimal counterparts as called (Poisson bivector, Nijenhuis operator) structures. Also, we present a one-to-one correspondence between…

Let M be a paracompact smooth manifold of dimension n; A a Weil algebra and M^A the Weil bundle associated. We define and describe the notion of \widetilded-Poisson cohomology and of \widetilded^A -Poisson cohomology on M^A.

We study invariant pseudo-K\"ahler structures on a solvmanifold $G$ such that the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ is almost abelian, that is $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{h}\rtimes\mathbb{R}$, with $\mathfrak{h}$ abelian; comparing with the…

We construct the linear Poisson structure on the predual bundle of a Banach Lie algebroid. It is an alternative approach to the already known results on the linear sub-Poisson structure on the dual bundle. We also discuss the existence of…

In this paper we prove that any Poisson structure on a sheaf of Lie algebroids admits a weak deformation quantization, and give a sufficient condition for such a Poisson structure to admit an actual deformation quantization. We also answer…

We introduce a new kind of groupoid--a pseudo \'etale groupoid, which provides many interesting examples of noncommutative Poisson algebras as defined by Block, Getzler, and Xu. Following the idea that symplectic and Poisson geometries are…

We study $\mathbb Z_2$-graded Poisson structures defined on $\mathbb Z_2$-graded commutative polynomial algebras. In small dimensional cases, we exhibit classifications of such Poisson structures, obtain the associated Poisson $\mathbb…

Differentiating an Lie $n$-groupoid via the differential-geometric fat point a priori only yielads a presheaf of graded manifolds. In this article we prove that this presheaf is representable by the tangent complex of the Lie $n$-groupoid.…

The purpose of this paper is to investigate shifted $(+1)$ Poisson structures in context of differential geometry. The relevant notion is shifted $(+1)$ Poisson structures on differentiable stacks. More precisely, we develop the notion of…

We introduce and study some mixed product Poisson structures on product manifolds associated to Poisson Lie groups and Lie bialgebras. For quasitriangular Lie bialgebras, our construction is equivalent to that of fusion products of…

The notion of $\mathcal{O}$-operators on modules over Lie algebras generalize Rota-Baxter operators. They also generalize Poisson structures on Lie algebras in the presence of modules. Motivated from Poisson structures, we define gauge…

Motivated by families of formal moduli problems, in this note we generalize the notion of L-infinity space by allowing sheaves of L-infinity algebras over any (reasonable) nilpotent dg manifold. We discuss various examples including those…

Parabosonic $P_{B}^{(n)}$ and parafermionic $P_{F}^{(n)}$ algebras are described as quotients of the tensor algebras of suitably choosen vector spaces. Their (super-) Lie algebraic structure and consequently their (super-) Hopf structure is…

This text is meant to be a brief overview of the topics announced in the title and is based on my talk in Vienna (August/September 2007). It does not contain new results (except probably for a remark concerning Q-manifold homology, which I…

We consider the problem of deforming simultaneously a pair of given structures. We show that such deformations are governed by an L-infinity algebra, which we construct explicitly. Our machinery is based on Th. Voronov's derived bracket…

We extend the calculus of multiplicative vector fields and differential forms and their intrinsic derivatives from Lie groups to Lie groupoids; this generalization turns out to include also the classical process of complete lifting from…

We identify the cotangent bundle Lie algebroid of a Poisson homogeneous space G/H of a Poisson Lie group G as a quotient of a transformation Lie algebroid over G. As applications, we describe the modular vector fields of G/H, and we…

A Lie groupoid can be thought of as a generalization of a Lie group in which the multiplication is only defined for certain pairs of elements. From another perspective, Lie groupoids can be regarded as manifolds endowed with a type of…
