We study the Hochschild cohomology and the Gerstenhaber algebra structure on the algebraic non-commutative torus/quantum torus orbifolds resulting by the action of finite subgroups of $SL_2(\mathbb Z)$. We also examine the Poisson…

The ``classical BRST construction'' as developed by Batalin-Fradkin-Vilkovisky is a homological construction for the reduction of the Poisson algebra $P = C^\infty (W)$ of smooth functions on a Poisson manifold $W$ by the ideal $I$ of…

Let G be a semi-simple algebraic group over ${\mathbb C}$, B a Borel subgroup of G and T a maximal torus in B. A beautiful unpublished result of Dale Peterson says that if G is simply laced, then every rationally smooth point of a Schubert…

For a complex or real algebraic group G, with g:=Lie(G), quantizations of global type are suitable Hopf algebras F_q[G] or U_q(g) over C[q,q^{-1}]. Any such quantization yields a structure of Poisson group on G, and one of Lie bialgebra on…

We study generalized complex manifolds from the point of view of symplectic and Poisson geometry. We start by showing that every generalized complex manifold admits a canonical Poisson structure. We use this fact, together with Weinstein's…

All possible Poisson-Lie (PL) structures on the 3D real Lie group generated by a dilation and two commuting translations are obtained. Its classification is fully performed by relating these PL groups with the corresponding Lie bialgebra…

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…

We define Poisson structures on certain transversal slices to conjugacy classes in complex simple algebraic groups introduced in arXiv:0809.0205. These slices are associated to the elements of the Weyl group, and the Poisson structures on…

We describe all Poisson brackets compatible with the natural cluster algebra structure in the open Schubert cell of the Grassmannian $G_k(n)$ and show that any such bracket endows $G_k(n)$ with a structure of a Poisson homogeneous space…

We prove a normal form theorem for principal Hamiltonian actions on Poisson manifolds around the zero locus of the moment map. The local model is the generalization to Poisson geometry of the classical minimal coupling construction from…

Let $G$ be a simple complex factorizable Poisson Lie algebraic group. Let $\U_\hbar(\g)$ be the corresponding quantum group. We study $\U_\hbar(\g)$-equivariant quantization $\C_\hbar[G]$ of the affine coordinate ring $\C[G]$ along the…

Given a $\mathfrak{g}$-action on a Poisson manifold $(M, \pi)$ and an equivariant map $J: M \rightarrow \mathfrak{h}^*,$ for $\mathfrak{h}$ a $\mathfrak{g}$-module, we obtain, under natural compatibility and regularity conditions previously…

Using Fedosov's approach we give a geometric construction of a formal symplectic groupoid over any Poisson manifold endowed with a torsion-free Poisson contravariant connection. In the case of Kaehler-Poisson manifolds this construction…

The correspondence between Poisson homogeneous spaces over a Poisson-Lie group $G$ and Lagrangian Lie subalgebras of the classical double $D({\mathfrak g})$ is revisited and explored in detail for the case in which ${\mathfrak…

Let $g$ be a simple Lie algebra and $Ab$ the poset of non-trivial abelian ideals of a fixed Borel subalgebra of $g$. In 2003 (IMRN, no.35, 1889--1913), we constructed a partition of $Ab$ into the subposets $Ab_\mu$, parameterised by the…

Let $P$ be a Poisson algebra, $E$ a vector space and $\pi : E \to P$ an epimorphism of vector spaces with $V = {\rm Ker} (\pi)$. The global extension problem asks for the classification of all Poisson algebra structures that can be defined…

For a Lie group $G$ and a closed Lie subgroup $H\subset G$, it is well known that the coset space $G/H$ can be equipped with the structure of a manifold homogeneous under $G$ and that any $G$-homogeneous manifold is isomorphic to one of…

Let $G$ be a Polish group and let $H \leq G$ be a compact subgroup. We prove that there exists a Borel set $T \subset G$ which is simultaneously a complete set of coset representatives of left and right cosets, provided that a certain index…

We study homogeneous metric spaces, by which we mean connected, locally compact metric spaces whose isometry group acts transitively. After a review of some classical results, we use the Gleason-Iwasawa-Montgomery-Yamabe-Zippin structure…

This paper is a sequel to [Caine A., Pickrell D., arXiv:0710.4484], where we studied the Hamiltonian systems which arise from the Evens-Lu construction of homogeneous Poisson structures on both compact and noncompact type symmetric spaces.…
