On sufficient and necessary conditions for linearity of the transverse Poisson structure (Q2268982): Difference between revisions

The notion of symplectic leaf through a point of a Poisson manifold was introduced by \textit{A. Weinstein} in [J. Differ. Geom. 18, 523--557 (1983; Zbl 0524.58011)], together with the notion of transverse Poisson structure to the symplectic leaf. In the particular case where the starting Poisson manifold is the dual of a Lie algebra \( g\) with its Lie-Poisson structure, the symplectic leaf through a point \(\mu\in g^*\) is just the coadjoint orbit of \(\mu\). In this paper, the authors study the possibility of bringing the transverse Poisson structure of a coadjoint orbit to a normal linear form. They study the relation between two sufficient conditions for linearity of such structures (P. Molino's condition and their own condition). These conditions were used to conclude that, if the isotropy subgroup of the (singular) point in question is compact, or the isotropy subalgebra is semisimple, then there is a linear transverse Poisson structure to the corresponding coadjoint orbit. Finally, by using a natural condition for linearity of structures, the authors prove that there is no polynomial transverse Poisson structure in the case of \(e (3)^*\).
