A simple mechanical system, the three-dimensional isotropic rigid rotator, is here investigated as a 0+1 field theory, aiming at further investigating the relation between Generalized/Double Geometry on the one hand and Doubled World-Sheet…

We propose a q-difference version of the Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction scheme, which gives us q-deformations of the classical W-algebras by reduction from Poisson-Lie loop groups. We consider in detail the case of SL(2). The nontrivial…

We review the notion of (anomalous) Poisson-Lie symmetry of a dynamical system and we outline the Poisson-Lie symmetric deformation of the standard WZW model from the vantage point of the twisted Heisenberg double.

In superdimension $(2|2)$ there are only three non-Abelian Lie superalgebras admitting non-degenerate ad-invariant supersymmetric metric, the well-known Lie superalgebra $gl(1|1)$, and two more, $({\C}^3 + \A)$ and $({\C}_0^5 +{\A})$. After…

We develop a structure theory for transposed Poisson algebras over fields of characteristic different from two. In particular, we prove that every finite-dimensional transposed Poisson algebra over an algebraically closed field decomposes…

Drinfeld doubles of finite subgroups of SU(2) and SU(3) are investigated in detail. Their modular data - S, T and fusion matrices - are computed explicitly, and illustrated by means of fusion graphs. This allows us to reexamine certain…

A geometric interpretation of the duality between two real forms of the complex trigonometric Ruijsenaars-Schneider system is presented. The phase spaces of the systems in duality are viewed as two different models of the same reduced phase…

We reexamine the notions of generalized Ricci tensor and scalar curvature on a general Courant algebroid, reformulate them using objects natural w.r.t. pull-backs and reductions, and obtain them from the variation of a natural action…

The Poisson-Lie T-plurality is an equivalence of string theories on various cosets $\mathcal{D}/\tilde{G}$, $\mathcal{D}/\tilde{G}'$, $\cdots$, where $\mathcal{D}$ is a Drinfel'd double and $\tilde{G}$, $\tilde{G}'$, $\cdots$ are maximal…

Let G be a connected, simply connected Poisson-Lie group with quasitriangular Lie bialgebra g. An explicit description of the double D(g) is given, together with the embeddings of g and g^*. This description is then used to provide a…

Poisson-Lie target space duality is a framework where duality transformations are properly defined. In this letter we investigate the pair of sigma models defined by the double SO(3,1) in the Iwasawa decomposition.

Four- and six-dimensional Drinfeld doubles were classified in the past in terms of Manin triples. We provide an important step towards the classification of eight-dimensional Drinfeld doubles by presenting an extensive list of Manin triples…

Global issues of the Poisson-Lie T-duality are addressed. It is shown that oriented open strings propagating on a group manifold $G$ are dual to $D$-brane - anti-$D$-brane pairs propagating on the dual group manifold $\ti G$. The $D$-branes…

We give a constructive account of the fundamental ingredients of Poisson Lie theory as the basis for a description of the classical double group $D$. The double of a group $G$ has a pointwise decomposition $D\sim G\times G^*$, where $G$ and…

We study a class of $\mathcal{E}$-models, referred to as Euclidean $\mathcal{E}$-models, in which the operator $\mathcal{E}$ acting on the Drinfeld double squares to minus the identity rather than to the identity. This modification leads to…

We study local normal forms for completely integrable systems on Poisson manifolds in the presence of additional symmetries. The symmetries that we consider are encoded in actions of compact Lie groups. The existence of Weinstein's…

We solve the topological Poisson Sigma model for a Poisson-Lie group $G$ and its dual $G^*$. We show that the gauge symmetry for each model is given by its dual group that acts by dressing transformations on the target. The resolution of…

The gauge action of the Lie group $G$ on the chiral WZNW phase space ${\cal M}_{\check G}$ of quasiperiodic fields with $\check G$-valued monodromy, where $\check G\subset G$ is an open submanifold, is known to be a Poisson-Lie (PL) action…

We extend the path-integral formulation of Poisson-Lie duality found by Tyurin and von Unge to N=1 supersymmetric sigma-models. Using an explicit representation of the generators of the Drinfel'd double corresponding to GxU(1)^dimG we…

We revisit classical "on shell" duality, i.e., pseudoduality, in two dimensional conformally invariant classical sigma models and find some new interesting results. We show that any two sigma models that are "on shell" duals have opposite…
