On a symplectic manifold a family of generalized Poisson brackets associated with powers of the symplectic form is studied. The extreme cases are related to the Hamiltonian and Liouville dynamics. It is shown that the Dirac brackets can be…

We study quantum deformations of Poisson orbivarieties. Given a Poisson manifold $(\mathbb{R}^{m},\alpha)$ we consider the Poisson orbivariety $(\mathbb{R}^{m})^{n}/S_{n}$. The Kontsevich star product on functions on $(\mathbb{R}^{m})^{n}$…

In this paper, we describe double Poisson brackets in the sense of M. Van den Bergh on certain finite-dimensional algebras. In particular we prove that all possible double Poisson brackets on matrix algebras are "inner", i.e. given by some…

We first extend the notion of connection in the context of Courant algebroids to obtain a new characterization of generalized Kaehler geometry. We then establish a new notion of isomorphism between holomorphic Poisson manifolds, which is…

After a brief summary of the main properties of Poisson manifolds and Lie algebroids in general, we survey recent work on the modular classes of Poisson and twisted Poisson manifolds, of Lie algebroids with a Poisson or twisted Poisson…

Let M be a manifold with an action of a Lie group G, $\A$ the function algebra on M. The first problem we consider is to construct a $U_h(\g)$ invariant quantization, $\A_h$, of $\A$, where $U_h(\g)$ is a quantum group corresponding to G.…

We consider contractions of Lie and Poisson algebras and the behaviour of their centres under contractions. A polynomial Poisson algebra A=K[W] is said to be of Kostant type, if its centre Z(A) is freely generated by homogeneous polynomials…

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…

This paper shows that various relevant dynamical systems can be described as vector fields associated to smooth functions via a bracket that defines what we call a Leibniz structure. We show that gradient flows, some dissipative systems,…

We describe an $p$-mechanical (see funct-an/9405002 and quant-ph/9610016) brackets which generate quantum (commutator) and classic (Poisson) brackets in corresponding representations of the Heisenberg group. We \emph{do not} use any kind of…

The first part of this paper is devoted to the theory of Poisson-Lie groups in the Banach setting. Our starting point is the straightforward adaptation of the notion of Manin triples to the Banach context. The difference with the…

We develop a family of infinite-dimensional Banach manifolds of measures on an abstract measurable space, employing charts that are "balanced" between the density and log-density functions. The manifolds, $(\tilde{M}_{\lambda},\lambda\in…

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…

On a Poisson manifold endowed with a Riemannian metric we will construct a vector field that generalizes the double bracket vector field defined on semi-simple Lie algebras. On a regular symplectic leaf we will construct a generalization of…

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 we show how to construct a homotopy BV-algebra on the algebra of differential forms over a higher Poisson manifold. The Lie derivative along the higher Poisson structure provides the generating operator.

The purpose of this work is to study Lie superalgebroid structures on the space of superdifferential $1$-forms over the supermanifolds whose superfunctions are the differential forms on its underlying manifold. These superalgbroids are…

We show that there is a sequence of operations on the positively graded part of a differential graded algebra making it into an L-infinity algebra. The formulas for the higher brackets involve Bernoulli numbers. The construction generalizes…

The connection between two recent descriptions of tensor hierarchies - namely, infinity-enhanced Leibniz algebroids, given by Bonezzi & Hohm and Lavau & Palmkvist, the p-brane QP-manifolds constructed by Arvanitakis - is made precise. This…

This paper is about the role of Planck's constant, $\hbar$, in the geometric quantization of Poisson manifolds using symplectic groupoids. In order to construct a strict deformation quantization of a given Poisson manifold, one can use all…
