Quantization of Poisson Lie Groups and Applications
1996
LetG be a connected Poisson-Lie group. We discuss aspects of the question of Drinfel'd:can G be quantized? and give some answers. WhenG is semisimple (a case where the answer isyes), we introduce quantizable Poisson subalgebras ofC ∞(G), related to harmonic analysis onG; they are a generalization of F.R.T. models of quantum groups, and provide new examples of quantized Poisson algebras.
Pseudodifferential Analysis on Manifolds with Boundary — a Comparison of b-Calculus and Cone Algebra
2001
We establish a relation between two different approaches to a complete pseudodifferential analysis of totally characteristic or Fuchs type operators on compact manifolds with boundary respectively conical singularities: Melrose’s (overblown) b-calculus and Schulze’s cone algebra. Though quite different in their definition, we show that these two pseudodifferential calculi basically contain the same operators.
TANGENTIAL DEFORMATIONS ON FIBRED POISSON MANIFOLDS
2005
In a recent article, Cattaneo, Felder and Tomassini explained how the notion of formality can be used to construct flat Fedosov connections on formal vector bundles on a Poisson manifold $M$ and thus a star product on $M$ through the original Fedosov method for symplectic manifolds. In this paper, we suppose that $M$ is a fibre bundle manifold equipped with a Poisson tensor tangential to the fibers. We show that in this case the construction of Cattaneo-Felder- Tomassini gives tangential (to the fibers) star products.
Algebras of pseudodifferential operators on complete manifolds
2003
In several influential works, Melrose has studied examples of non-compact manifolds M 0 M_0 whose large scale geometry is described by a Lie algebra of vector fields V ⊂ Γ ( M ; T M ) \mathcal V \subset \Gamma (M;TM) on a compactification of M 0 M_0 to a manifold with corners M M . The geometry of these manifolds—called “manifolds with a Lie structure at infinity”—was studied from an axiomatic point of view in a previous paper of ours. In this paper, we define and study an algebra Ψ 1 , 0 , V ∞ ( M 0 ) \Psi _{1,0,\mathcal V}^\infty (M_0) of pseudodifferential operators canonically associated to a manifold M 0 M_0 with a Lie structure at infinity V ⊂ Γ ( M ; T M ) \mathcal V \subset \Gamma (…
Graded Poisson structures on the algebra of differential forms
1995
We study the graded Poisson structures defined on Ω(M), the graded algebra of differential forms on a smooth manifoldM, such that the exterior derivative is a Poisson derivation. We show that they are the odd Poisson structures previously studied by Koszul, that arise from Poisson structures onM. Analogously, we characterize all the graded symplectic forms on ΩM) for which the exterior derivative is a Hamiltomian graded vector field. Finally, we determine the topological obstructions to the possibility of obtaining all odd symplectic forms with this property as the image by the pullback of an automorphism of Ω(M) of a graded symplectic form of degree 1 with respect to which the exterior der…
The Poisson Bracket Structure of the SL(2, R)/U(1) Gauged WZNW Model with Periodic Boundary Conditions
2000
The gauged SL(2, R)/U(1) Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten (WZNW) model is classically an integrable conformal field theory. A second-order differential equation of the Gelfand-Dikii type defines the Poisson bracket structure of the theory. For periodic boundary conditions zero modes imply non-local Poisson brackets which, nevertheless, can be represented by canonical free fields.
Classical and Quantum Nonultralocal Systems on the Lattice
1997
We classify nonultralocal Poisson brackets for 1-dimensional lattice systems and describe the corresponding regularizations of the Poisson bracket relations for the monodromy matrix. A nonultralocal quantum algebras on the lattices for these systems are constructed. For some class of such algebras an ultralocalization procedure is proposed. The technique of the modified Bethe-Anzatz for these algebras is developed and is applied to the nonlinear sigma model problem.
Star calculus on Jacobi manifolds
2002
Abstract We study the Gerstenhaber bracket on differential forms induced by the two main examples of Jacobi manifolds: contact manifolds and l.c.s. manifolds. Moreover, we obtain explicit expressions of the generating operators and the derivations on the algebra of multivector fields. We define star operators for contact manifolds and l.c.s. manifolds and we study some of its properties.
Some remarks concerning Nambu mechanics
1996
The structure of Nambu-Poisson brackets is studied and we establish that any Nambu tensor is decomposable. We show that every Nambu-Poisson manifold admits a local foliation by canonical Nambu-Poisson manifolds. Finally, a cohomology for Nambu (Lie) algebras which is adapted to the study of formal deformations of Nambu structures is introduced.
