We propose a generalization of the reduction of Poisson manifolds by distributions introduced by Marsden and Ratiu. Our proposal overcomes some of the restrictions of the original procedure, and makes the reduced Poisson structure…
A new notion of a dual Poisson-presymplectic pair is introduced and its properties are examined. The procedure of Dirac reduction of Poisson operators onto submanifolds proposed by Dirac is in this paper embedded in a geometric procedure of…

This work introduces a unified approach to the reduction of Poisson manifolds using their description by graded symplectic manifolds. This yields a generalization of the classical Poisson reduction by distributions (Marsden-Ratiu…
In this paper, we discuss the geometric integration of hamiltonian systems on Poisson manifolds, in particular, in the case, when the Poisson structure is induced by a Lie algebra, that is, it is a Lie-Poisson structure. A Hamiltonian…
We formulate and discuss a reduction theorem for Poisson pencils associated with a class of integrable systems, defined on bi-Hamiltonian manifolds, recently studied by Gel'fand and Zakharevich. The reduction procedure is suggested by 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…
This paper investigates Hamiltonian properties of the algebro-geometric discretization of KP hierarchy introduced in \cite{Gie1}. A Poisson bracket is introduced. The system is related to the periodic band matrix system of \cite{vM-M}. It…
We describe a reduction process for symplectic principal $\mathbb{R}$-bundles in the presence of a momentum map. This type of structures plays an important role in the geometric formulation of non-autonomous Hamiltonian systems. We apply…
The procedure of Dirac reduction of Poisson operators on submanifolds is discussed within a particularly useful special realization of the general Marsden-Ratiu reduction procedure. The Dirac classification of constraints on 'first-class'…
We show that the bi-Hamiltonian structures of the Camassa-Holm and Harry Dym hierarchies can be obtained by applying a reduction process to a simple Poisson pair defined on the loop algebra of $\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R})$. The reduction…
We study geodesics on hypersurfaces close to the standard (n-1)-dimensional sphere in n-dimensional Euclidean space. Following Poincar\'e, we treat the problem within the framework of the analytical mechanics, and employ the perturbation…
We develop a general procedure for reduction along strong Dirac maps, which are a broad generalization of Poisson momentum maps. We recover a large number of familiar constructions in Poisson and quasi-Poisson geometry, and we introduce new…
We discuss the geometry of the Marsden-Ratiu reduction theorem for a bihamiltonian manifold. We consider the case of the manifolds associated with the Gel'fand-Dickey theory, i.e., loop algebras over sl(n+1). We provide an explicit…
Stokes-Dirac structures are infinite-dimensional Dirac structures defined in terms of differential forms on a smooth manifold with boundary. These Dirac structures lay down a geometric framework for the formulation of Hamiltonian systems…
We show that, under suitable conditions, finite-dimensional systems describing invariant solutions of partial differential equations (PDEs) inherit local Hamiltonian operators through the mechanism of invariant reduction, which applies…
The correspondence between Poisson structures and symplectic groupoids, analogous to the one of Lie algebras and Lie groups, plays an important role in Poisson geometry; it offers, in particular, a unifying framework for the study of…
In this expository note, we give a self-contained introduction to some modern incarnations of Hamiltonian reduction. Particular emphasis is placed on applications to symplectic geometry and geometric representation theory. We thereby…
Dirac deformation of Poisson operators of arbitrary rank is considered. The question when Dirac reduction does not destroy linear Poisson pencils is studied. A class of separability preserving Dirac reductions in the corresponding…
We introduce the process of symplectic reduction along a submanifold as a uniform approach to taking quotients in symplectic geometry. This construction holds in the categories of smooth manifolds, complex analytic spaces, and complex…
