We study the Poisson geometrical formulation of quantum mechanics for finite dimensional mixed and pure states. Equivalently, we show that quantum mechanics can be understood in the language of classical mechanics. We review the symplectic…
The $p\times p$ matrix version of the $r$-KdV hierarchy has been recently treated as the reduced system arising in a Drinfeld-Sokolov type Hamiltonian symmetry reduction applied to a Poisson submanifold in the dual of the Lie algebra…
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 prove a special case of a conjecture of Davison which pertains to superpotential descriptions of fundamental group algebras $k[\pi_1(X)]$. We consider the case in which the manifold $X$ is the mapping torus $M_{g, \varphi}$ of a genus…
We describe an averaging procedure on a Dirac manifold, with respect to a class of compatible actions of a compact Lie group. Some averaging theorems on the existence of invariant realizations of Poisson structures around (singular)…
In this paper, we compute the Gerstenhaber bracket on the Hoch-schild cohomology of $C^\infty(M)\rtimes G$ for a finite group $G$ acting on a compact manifold $M$. Using this computation, we obtain geometric descriptions for all…
In this paper we introduce poly-Poisson structures as a higher-order extension of Poisson structures. It is shown that any poly-Poisson structure is endowed with a polysymplectic foliation. It is also proved that if a Lie group acts…
We derive a local ansatz for generalized K\"ahler surfaces with nondegenerate Poisson structure and a biholomorphic $S^1$ action which generalizes the classic Gibbons-Hawking ansatz for invariant hyperK\"ahler manifolds, and allows for the…
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 prove a normal form theorem for Poisson structures around Poisson transversals (also called cosymplectic submanifolds), which simultaneously generalizes Weinstein's symplectic neighborhood theorem from symplectic geometry and Weinstein's…
We introduce a Lie bialgebra structure on the central extension of the Lie algebra of differential operators on the line and the circle (with scalar or matrix coefficients). This defines a Poisson--Lie structure on the dual group of…
We prove that if a compact K\"ahler Poisson manifold has a symplectic leaf with finite fundamental group, then after passing to a finite \'etale cover, it decomposes as the product of the universal cover of the leaf and some other Poisson…
A symplectic structure on the space of nondegenerate and nonparametrized curves in a locally affine manifold is defined. We also consider several interesting spaces of nondegenerate projective curves endowed with Poisson structures. This…
The space of functions A over the phase space of KdV-hierarchy is studied as a module over the ring D generated by commuting derivations. A D-free resolution of A is constructed by Babelon, Bernard and Smirnov by taking the classical limit…
By solving the infinitesimal Galilean symmetry for the KdV hierarchy, we obtain an explicit expression for the corresponding one-parameter Lie group, which we call the Galilean symmetry of the KdV hierarchy. As an application, we establish…
We construct bypass attachments in higher dimensional contact manifolds that, when attached to a neighborhood of a Weinstein hypersurface, yield a neighborhood of a new Weinstein hypersurface, obtained via local modifications to the…
We present a fairly new and comprehensive approach to the study of stationary flows of the Korteweg-de Vries hierarchy. They are obtained by means of a double restriction process from a dynamical system in an infinite number of variables.…
There is a standard way to define two symplectic (hamiltonian) structures, the first and second Gelfand-Dikii brackets, on the space of ordinary linear differential operators of order $m$, $L = -d^m + U_1 d^{m-1} + U_2 d^{m-2} + \ldots +…
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…
We consider the Poisson sigma model associated to a Poisson manifold. The perturbative quantization of this model yields the Kontsevich star product formula. We study here the classical model in the Hamiltonian formalism. The phase space is…
