Let G be a Lie group endowed with a bi-invariant pseudo-Riemannian metric. Then the moduli space of flat connections on a principal G-bundle, P\to \Sigma, over a compact oriented surface, \Sigma, carries a Poisson structure. If we…

In earlier work we have shown that the moduli space $N$ of flat connections for the (trivial) $\roman{SU(2)}$-bundle on a closed surface of genus $\ell \geq 2$ inherits a structure of stratified symplectic space with two connected strata…

In this paper we study Poisson actions of complete Poisson groups, without any connectivity assumption or requiring the existence of a momentum map. For any complete Poisson group $G$ with dual $G^\star$ we obtain a suitably connected…

Let G be a connected complex semi-simple group, B a Borel subgroup of G, and T a maximal torus in B. We construct a class of smooth T-stable subvarieties inside the flag variety G/B, each of which is an embedding of a product of projective…

We study a large class of Poisson manifolds, derived from Manin triples, for which we construct explicit partitions into regular Poisson submanifolds by intersecting certain group orbits. Examples include all varieties ${\mathcal L}$ of…

We consider the symplectic groupoid of pairs $(B, A)$ with $A$ real unipotent upper-triangular matrix and $B\in GL_n$ being such that $\tilde A=BAB^T$ is also a unipotent upper-triangular matrix. Fock and Chekhov defined a Poisson map of…

The Schubert varieties on a flag manifold G/P give rise to a cell decomposition on G/P whose Kronecker duals, known as the Schubert classes on G/P, form an additive base of the integral cohomology of G/P. The Schubert's problem of…

A compact semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ induces a Poisson structure $\pi$ on the unit sphere $S$ in $\mathfrak{g}^*$. We compute the moduli space of Poisson structures on $S$ around $\pi$. This is the first explicit computation of a…
