Abstract

We prove that when Kontsevich's deformation quantization is applied on weight homogeneous Poisson structures, the operators in the \ast- product formula are weight homogeneous. We then consider the linear Poisson case X=gX=\mathfrak{g}^\ast for a semi simple Lie algebra g\mathfrak{g}. As an application we provide an isomorphism between the Cattaneo-Felder-Torossian reduction algebra H0(g,m,χ)H^0(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{m},\chi) and the WW- algebra (U(g)/U(g)mχ)m(U(\mathfrak{g})/U(\mathfrak{g})\mathfrak{m}_\chi)^\mathfrak{m}. We also show that in the WW- algebra setting, (S(g)/S(g)mχ)m(S(\mathfrak{g})/S(\mathfrak{g})\mathfrak{m}_\chi)^\mathfrak{m} is polynomial. Finally, we compute generators of H0(g,m,χ)H^0(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{m},\chi) as a deformation of (S(g)/S(g)mχ)m(S(\mathfrak{g})/S(\mathfrak{g})\mathfrak{m}_\chi)^\mathfrak{m}.
