Abstract

We prove that the R\mathbb{R}-algebra S(P(E,M))\mathcal{S}(\mathcal{P}(E,M)) of symbols of differential operators acting on the sections of the vector bundle EME\to M decompose into the sum S(P(E,M))=J(E)Pol(TM) \mathcal{S}(\mathcal{P}(E,M))=\mathcal{J}(E)\oplus {\rm Pol}(T^*M) where J(E)\mathcal{J}(E) is an ideal of S(P(E,M))\mathcal{S}(\mathcal{P}(E,M)) in which product of two elements is always zero. This induces that S(P(E,M))\mathcal{S}(\mathcal{P}(E,M)) cannot characterize EME \to M with its only structure of R\mathbb{R}- algebra. We prove that with its Poisson algebra structure, S(P(E,M))\mathcal{S}(\mathcal{P}(E,M)) characterizes the vector bundle EME\to M without the requirement to be considered as a C(M){\rm C}^\infty(M)-module.
