We establish a connection between smooth symplectic resolutions and symplectic deformations of a (possibly singular) affine Poisson variety. In particular, let V be a finite-dimensional complex symplectic vector space and G\subset Sp(V) a…
For a Poisson manifold $M$ we develop systematic methods to compute its Picard group $Pic(M)$, i.e., its group of self Morita equivalences. We establish a precise relationship between $Pic(M)$ and the group of gauge transformations up to…
We recall the question of geometric integrators in the context of Poisson geometry, and explain their construction. These Poisson integrators are tested in some mechanical examples. Their properties are illustrated numerically and they are…
A surface $\Sigma$ endowed with a Poisson tensor $\pi$ is known to admit a canonical integration $\mathcal{G}(\pi)$, which is a 4-dimensional manifold with a (symplectic) groupoid structure. In this short note we show that when $\pi$ is not…
The graph complex acts on the spaces of Poisson bi-vectors $P$ by infinitesimal symmetries. We prove that whenever a Poisson structure is homogeneous, i.e. $P = L_{\vec{V}}(P)$ w.r.t. the Lie derivative along some vector field $\vec{V}$,…
Any multiplicative quiver variety is endowed with a Poisson structure constructed by Van den Bergh through reduction from a Hamiltonian quasi-Poisson structure. The smooth locus carries a corresponding symplectic form defined by Yamakawa…
We study the geometry of complex Poisson bivectors over smooth manifolds. We show that under mild regularity conditions any complex Poisson bivector has associated a complex presymplectic foliation. After that, we use techniques of Dirac…
We identify thirteen isomorphism classes of indecomposable coisotropic relations between Poisson vector spaces and show that every coisotropic relation between finite-dimensional Poisson vector spaces may be decomposed as a direct sum of…
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…
We study isomorphism classes of symplectic dual pairs P <- S -> P-, where P is an integrable Poisson manifold, S is symplectic, and the two maps are complete, surjective Poisson submersions with connected and simply-connected fibres. For…
We discuss the Lie Poisson groups structures associated to splittings of the loop group LGL(N), due to Sklyanin. Concentrating on the finite dimensional leaves of the associated Poisson structure, we show that the geometry of the leaves is…
We consider the space of bilinear forms on a complex N-dimensional vector space endowed with the quadratic Poisson bracket studied in our previous paper arXiv:1012.5251. We classify all possible quadratic brackets on the set of pairs of…
We consider the class of quasiprojective varieties admitting a dominant morphism onto a curve with negative Euler characteristic. The existence of such a morphism is a property of the fundamental group. We show that for a variety in this…
We construct a Poisson map between manifolds with linear Poisson brackets corresponding to the Lie algebras $e(3)$ and $so(4)$. Using this map we establish a connection between the deformed Kowalevski top on $e(3)$ proposed by Sokolov and…
This paper presents a general method to construct Poisson integrators, i.e., integrators that preserve the underlying Poisson geometry. We assume the Poisson manifold is integrable, meaning there is a known local symplectic groupoid for…
We introduce a Poisson variety compatible with a cluster algebra structure and a compatible toric action on this variety. We study Poisson and topological properties of the union of generic orbits of this toric action. In particular, we…
A Beauville surface (of unmixed type) is a complex algebraic surface which is the quotient of the product of two curves of genus at least 2 by a finite group G acting freely on the product, where G preserves the two curves and their…
Presymplectic and Poisson reduction of cluster maps are described in terms of the "canonical" foliations of presymplectic and Poisson manifolds. This approach to reduction leads to a geometric description, in terms of foliations, of the…
We prove a variation on Heawood list-coloring for graphs on surfaces, modeled on Thomassen's planar 5-list-coloring theorem. For epsilon>0 define the Heawood number to be H(epsilon)=Floor((7+Sqrt[24*epsilon+1])/2). We prove that, except for…
We consider the space of graph connections (lattice gauge fields) which can be endowed with a Poisson structure in terms of a ciliated fat graph. (A ciliated fat graph is a graph with a fixed linear order of ends of edges at each vertex.)…
