The notion of Poisson manifold with compatible pseudo-metric was introduced by the author in [1]. In this paper, we introduce a new class of Lie algebras which we call a pseudo-Rieamannian Lie algebras. The two notions are strongly related:…

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.

A 4-dimensional Riemannian manifold M, equipped with an additional tensor structure S, whose fourth power is minus identity, is considered. The structure S has a skew-circulant matrix with respect to some basis of the tangent space at a…

We show that for any set of primes $\mathcal{P}$ there exists a space $M_{\mathcal{P}}$ which is a homology and cohomology 3-manifold with coefficients in $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$ for $p\in \mathcal{ P}$ and is not a homology or cohomology…

The Brieskorn manifolds $B(p,q,r)$ are the $r$-fold cyclic coverings of the 3-sphere $S^{3}$ branched over the torus knot $T(p,q)$. The generalised Sieradski groups $S(m,p,q)$ are groups with $m$-cyclic pre\-sen\-tation $G_{m}(w)$, where…

On an orientable manifold M, we consider a regular even dimensional foliation F which is globally defined by a set of k-independent 1-forms. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a regular Poisson structure on M…

The geometrical description of deformation quantization based on quantum duality principle makes it possible to introduce deformed Lie-Poisson structure. It serves as a natural analogue of classical Lie bialgebra for the case when the…

If $M$ is the underlying smooth oriented $4$-manifold of a Del Pezzo surface, we consider the set of Riemannian metrics $h$ on $M$ such that $W^+(\omega , \omega )> 0$, where $W^+$ is the self-dual Weyl curvature of $h$, and $\omega$ is a…

We investigate some genuine Poisson geometric objects in the modular theory of an arbitrary von Neumann algebra $\mathfrak{M}$. Specifically, for any standard form realization $(\mathfrak{M},\mathcal{H},J,\mathcal{P})$, we find a canonical…

For an integer $m\geq 1$, a combinatorial manifold $\widetilde{M}$ is defined to be a geometrical object $\widetilde{M}$ such that for $\forall p\in\widetilde{M}$, there is a local chart $(U_p,\phi_p)$ enable $\phi_p:U_p\to…

In this paper, we present a theory of Poisson deformation of Hamiltonian quasi-Poisson manifolds to Hamiltonian Poisson manifolds that include degenerate cases. More significantly, this theory extends to singular cases arising from…

We carry out a Hamiltonian analysis of Poisson-Lie T-duality based on the loop geometry of the underlying phases spaces of the dual sigma and WZW models. Duality is fully characterized by the existence of equivariant momentum maps on the…

We show that $L_{\infty}$-algebroids, understood in terms of Q-manifolds can be described in terms of certain higher Schouten and Poisson structures on graded (super)manifolds. This generalises known constructions for Lie (super)algebras…

Let $M$ be a smooth closed orientable manifold and $\mathcal{P}(M)$ the space of Poisson structures on $M$. We construct a Poisson bracket on $\mathcal{P}(M)$ depending on a choice of volume form. The Hamiltonian flow of the bracket acts on…

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…

First, we derive an explicit formula for the Poisson bracket of the classical finite W-algebra W^{fin}(g,f), the algebra of polynomial functions on the Slodowy slice associated to a simple Lie algebra g and its nilpotent element f. On the…

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…

Let $\pi=\pi_1(M)$ for a compact 3-manifold $M$, and let $\chi_4$, $p$ and $q^*$ be the invariants of Hausmann-Weinberger, Kotschick and Hillman respectively. For certain class of compact 3-manifolds $M$, including all those not containing…

It is studied a 3-dimensional Riemannian manifold equipped with a tensor structure of type (1,1), whose third power is the identity. This structure has a circulant matrix with respect to some basis, i.e. the structure is circulant. On such…

We prove that each bounded polytope can be represented as a polynomial zonotope, which we refer to as the Z-representation of polytopes. Previous representations are the vertex representation (V-representation) and the halfspace…
