Using the multisymplectic Hamiltonian formalism, we propose a Poisson bracket for the electromagnetic field that, in addition to satisfying the restricted principle of relativity, reproduces well-established results from the standard…

Continuous formal deformations of the Poisson superbracket defined on compactly supported smooth functions on R^n taking values in a Grassmann algebra are described up to an equivalence transformation. It is shown that there are additional…

It is shown that two definitions for the exterior differential in superspace, giving the same exterior calculus, when applied to the Poisson bracket lead to the different results. Examples of the even and odd linear brackets, corresponding…

We introduce the notion of a multiplicative Poisson $\lambda$-bracket, which plays the same role in the theory of Hamiltonian differential-difference equations as the usual Poisson $\lambda$-bracket plays in the theory of Hamiltonian PDE.…

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…

In field theories one often works with the functionals which are integrals of some densities. These densities are defined up to divergence terms (boundary terms). A Poisson bracket of two functionals is also a functional, i.e., an integral…

Recently it has been shown that antibrackets may be expressed in terms of Poisson brackets and vice versa for commuting functions in the original bracket. Here we also introduce generalized brackets involving higher antibrackets or higher…

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 consider here special Poisson brackets given by the "averaging" of local multi-dimensional Poisson brackets in the Whitham method. For the brackets of this kind it is natural to ask about their canonical forms, which can be obtained…

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:…

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…

A covariant Poisson bracket and an associated covariant star product in the sense of deformation quantization are defined on the algebra of tensor-valued differential forms on a symplectic manifold, as a generalization of similar structures…

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 consider features of the Hamiltonian formulation of the Whitham method in the presence of pseudo-phases. As we show, an analog of the procedure of averaging of the Poisson bracket with the reduced number of the first integrals can be…

A linear odd Poisson bracket realized solely in terms of Grassmann variables is suggested. It is revealed that with the bracket, corresponding to a semi-simple Lie group, both a Grassmann-odd Casimir function and invariant (with respect to…

We generalize double bracket vector fields, originally defined on semisimple Lie algebras, to Poisson manifolds equipped with a pseudo-Riemannian metric by utilizing a symmetric contravariant 2-tensor field. We extend the normal metric on…

A common approach to the theory of nonlocal Poisson brackets, seen from the operatorial point of view, has been to keep implicit the sets on which these brackets act. In this paper we aim to explicitly define appropriate functional spaces…

Let M be a paracompact differentiable manifold, A a local algebra and M^{A} a manifold of infinitely near points on M of kind A. We define the notion of A-Poisson manifold on M^{A}. We show that when M is a Poisson manifold, then M^{A} is…

We develop a geometric approach to Poisson electrodynamics, that is, the semi-classical limit of noncommutative $U(1)$ gauge theory. Our framework is based on an integrating symplectic groupoid for the underlying Poisson brackets, which we…
