We investigate some infinite dimensional Lie algebras and their associated Poisson structures which arise from a Lie group action on a manifold. If $G$ is a Lie group, $\g$ its Lie algebra and $M$ is a manifold on which $G$ acts, then the…

This is a continuation of math.AG/0609741. Let Y be an affine symplectic variety with a C^*-action with positive weights, and let \pi: X -> Y be its crepant resolution. Then \pi induces a natural map PDef(X) -> PDef(Y) of Kuranishi spaces…

This paper is about the rigidity of compact group actions in the Poisson context. The main resut is that Hamiltonian actions of compact semisimple type are rigid. We prove it via a Nash-Moser normal form theorem for closed subgroups of…

We consider compatibility conditions between Poisson and Riemannian structures on smooth manifolds by means of a contravariant partially complex structure, or $f$-structure, introducing the notion of (almost) K\"ahler--Poisson manifolds. In…

To a finite quiver equipped with a positive integer on each of its vertices, we associate a holomorphic symplectic manifold having some parameters. This coincides with Nakajima's quiver variety with no stability parameter/framing if the…

We compute the full holonomy group of compact Lorentzian manifolds with parallel Weyl tensor, which are neither conformally flat nor locally symmetric, for the case where the fundamental group is contained in a distinguished subgroup G of…

Generalized complex geometry was classically formulated by the language of differential geometry. In this paper, we reformulated a generalized complex manifold as a holomorphic symplectic differentiable formal stack in a homotopical sense.…

In this paper we study the symplectic and Poisson geometry of moduli spaces of flat connections over quilted surfaces. These are surfaces where the structure group varies from region to region in the surface, and where a reduction (or…

This paper identifies the homotopy theories of topological stacks and orbispaces with unstable global homotopy theory. At the same time, we provide a new perspective by interpreting it as the homotopy theory of `spaces with an action of the…

In this paper we propose a noncommutative generalization of the relationship between compact K\"ahler manifolds and complex projective algebraic varieties. Beginning with a prequantized K\"ahler structure, we use a holomorphic Poisson…

In this paper we study quotients of Lie algebroids and groupoids endowed with compatible differential forms. We identify Lie theoretic conditions under which such forms become basic and characterize the induced forms on the quotients. We…

We construct an analogue of Whittaker reduction for Poisson actions of a semisimple complex Poisson-Lie group G. The reduction takes place along a class of transversal slices to unipotent orbits in G, which are generalizations of the…

Whenever a given Poisson manifold is equipped with discrete symmetries the corresponding algebra of invariant functions or the algebra of functions twisted by the symmetry group can have new deformations, which are not captured by…

Compact pseudo-Riemannian manifolds that have parallel Weyl tensor without being conformally flat or locally symmetric are known to exist in infinitely many dimensions greater than 4. We prove some general topological properties of such…

We provide a uniform approach to obtain sufficient criteria for a (higher order) fixed point of a given bracket structure on a manifold to be stable under deformations. Examples of bracket structures include Lie algebroids, Lie…

In this paper we study a natural generalization of symplectic toric manifolds in the context of regular Poisson manifolds of compact types. To be more precise, we consider a class of multiplicity-free Hamiltonian actions by regular proper…

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…

We compute the Poisson cohomology of a class of Poisson manifolds that are symplectic away from a collection $D$ of hypersurfaces. These Poisson structures induce a generalization of symplectic and cosymplectic structures, which we call a…

A generalized complex manifold is locally gauge-equivalent to the product of a holomorphic Poisson manifold with a real symplectic manifold, but in possibly many different ways. In this paper we show that the isomorphism class of the…

We compute the space of Poisson traces on symmetric powers of affine symplectic varieties. In the case of symplectic vector spaces, we also consider the quotient by the diagonal translation action, which includes the quotient singularities…
