We investigate conformal relative equilibria for Hamiltonian systems on exact Poisson manifolds equipped with scaling symmetries. By introducing conformally Poisson actions and conformal momentum maps, we characterize these equilibria…
A surjective submersion $\pi : M \to B$ carrying a field of simplectic structures on the fibres is symplectic if this Poisson structure is minimal. A symplectic submersion may be interpreted as a family of mechanical systems depending on a…
The main result of this paper is a convexity theorem for momentum mappings of certain hamiltonian actions of noncompact semisimple Lie groups. The image is required to fall within a certain open subset D of the (dual of the) Lie algebra,…
We study compound systems with a classical sector and a quantum sector. Among other consistency conditions we require a canonical structure, that is, a Lie bracket for the dynamical evolution of hybrid observables in the Heisenberg picture,…
The Lie-Poisson analogues of the cotangent bundle and coadjoint orbits of a Lie group are considered. For the natural Poisson brackets the symplectic leaves in these manifolds are classified and the corresponding symplectic forms are…
We review the prequantization procedure in the context of super symplectic manifolds with a symplectic form which is not necessarily homogeneous. In developing the theory of non homogeneous symplectic forms, there is one surprising result:…
Emphasizing the role of Gerstenhaber algebras and of higher derived brackets in the theory of Lie algebroids, we show that the several Lie algebroid brackets which have been introduced in the recent literature can all be defined in terms of…
We study smoothness of generalized solutions of nonlocal elliptic problems in plane bounded domains with piecewise smooth boundary. The case where the support of nonlocal terms can intersect the boundary is considered. We find conditions…
We describe some general results that constrain the dynamical fluctuations that can occur in non-equilibrium steady states, with a focus on molecular dynamics. That is, we consider Hamiltonian systems, coupled to external heat baths, and…
In this note we point out the striking relation between the conditions arising within geometric quantization and the non-perturbative Poisson sigma model. Starting from the Poisson sigma model, we analyze necessary requirements on the path…
We review recent results and ongoing investigations of the symplectic and Poisson geometry of derived moduli spaces, and describe applications to deformation quantization of such spaces.
We study the Poisson bracket invariant, which measures the level of Poisson noncommutativity of a smooth partition of unity, on closed symplectic surfaces. Motivated by a general conjecture of Polterovich and building on preliminary work of…
We introduce a new type of noncommutative Poisson structure on associative algebras. It induces Poisson structures on the moduli spaces classifying semisimple modules. Path algebras of doubled quivers and preprojective algebras have…
We study the existence of log-canonical Poisson structures that are preserved by difference equations of special form. We also study the inverse problem, given a log-canonical Poisson structure to find a difference equation preserving this…
A symplectic integration of a Poisson manifold $(M,\Lambda)$ is a symplectic groupoid $(\Gamma,\eta)$ which realizes the given Poisson manifold, i.e. such that the space of units $\Gamma_0$ with the induced Poisson structure $\Lambda_0$ is…
In this paper we study the problem of Hamiltonization of nonholonomic systems from a geometric point of view. We use gauge transformations by 2-forms (in the sense of Severa and Weinstein [29]) to construct different almost Poisson…
We analyze the Poisson structure of the time-dependent mean-field equations for bosons and construct the Lie-Poisson bracket associated to these equations. The latter follow from the time-dependent variational principle of Balian and…
This manuscript is essentially a collection of lecture notes which were given by the first author at the Summer School Wisl-2019, Poland and written down by the second author. As the title suggests, the material covered here includes the…
While the construction of symplectic integrators for Hamiltonian dynamics is well understood, an analogous general theory for Poisson integrators is still lacking. The main challenge lies in overcoming the singular and non-linear geometric…
We study the integrability of Poisson and Dirac structures that arise from quotient constructions. From our results we deduce several classical results as well as new applications. We also give explicit constructions of Lie groupoids…
