The correspondence between Poisson structures and symplectic groupoids, analogous to the one of Lie algebras and Lie groups, plays an important role in Poisson geometry; it offers, in particular, a unifying framework for the study of…

We give a construction of a Poisson transform mapping density valued differential forms on generalized flag manifolds to differential forms on the corresponding Riemannian symmetric spaces, which can be described entirely in terms of finite…

The moduli space of Anosov representations of a surface group in a semisimple group, which is an open set in the character variety, admits many more natural functions than the regular functions. We will study in particular length functions…

In this paper, the notions of quasi-triangular and factorizable dual pre-Poisson bialgebras are introduced. A factorizable dual pre-Poisson bialgebra induces a factorization of the underlying dual pre-Poisson algebra, and the double of any…

We give a new characterization of partial groups as a subcategory of symmetric (simplicial) sets. This subcategory has an explicit reflection, which permits one to compute colimits in the category of partial groups. We also introduce the…

We introduce partial representation of a finite groupoid $G$ on an algebra $A$ and show that the partial groupoid representations of $G$ are in one-to-one correspondence with the representations of the algebra generated by the Birget-Rhodes…

Let $M$ be an oriented manifold and let $\frak N$ be a set consisting of oriented closed manifolds of the same odd dimension. We consider the topological space $G_{\frak N, M}$ of commutative diagrams. Each commutative diagram consists of a…

Poisson transversals are those submanifolds in a Poisson manifold which intersect all symplectic leaves transversally and symplectically. In a previous note we proved a normal form theorem around such submanifolds. In this communication, we…

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…

Given a symplectic form and a pseudo-riemannian metric on a manifold, a non degenerate even Poisson bracket on the algebra of differential forms is defined and its properties are studied. A comparison with the Koszul-Schouten bracket is…

The Schouten bracket (or antibracket) plays a central role in the Poisson formalism and the Batalin-Vilkovisky quantization of gauge systems. There are several (in)equivalent ways to realize this concept on jet spaces. In this paper, we…

Let M be a paracompact differentiable manifold, A a local algebra and M^{A} a manifold of infinitely near points on M of kind A. We define the notion of A-Poisson manifold on M^{A}. We show that when M is a Poisson manifold, then M^{A} is…

We describe a deformation quantization of a modification of Poisson geometry by a closed 3-form. Under suitable conditions it gives rise to a stack of algebras. The basic object used for this aim is a kind of families of Poisson structures…

E.B. Vinberg's theory of quasi-derivations of algebras is extended to a broader framework of near-derivations. This deepens connections between Poisson geometry and Lie theory. Although basic results apply to arbitrary algebras, our…

For a class of symplectic manifolds, we introduce a functional which assigns a real number to any pair of continuous functions on the manifold. This functional has a number of interesting properties. On the one hand, it is Lipschitz with…

In this paper we study areas (called p-areas) and volumes for parametric surfaces in the 3D-Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}_1$, which is considered as a flat model of pseudo-hermitian manifolds. We derive the formulas of p-areas and volumes…

In this paper, we consider the groupoidification of the fermion algebra. We construct a groupoid as the categorical analogues of the fermionic Fock space, and the creation and annihilation operators correspond to spans of groupoids. The…

We review the linearization of Poisson brackets and related problems, in the formal, analytic and smooth categories.

Let G be a Lie group and g its Lie algebra. We develop a theory of quasi Poisson structures relative to a not necessarily non-degenerate Ad-invariant symmetric 2-tensor in the tensor square of g and one of general not necessarily…

We compute the formal Poisson cohomology of a broken Lefschetz fibration by calculating it at fold and Lefschetz singularities. Near a fold singularity the computation reduces to that for a point singularity in 3 dimensions. For the Poisson…
