Abstract: 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 effectively dependent on the distribution. Different applications are discussed, as well as the algebraic interpretation of the procedure and its formulation in terms of Dirac structures.

Review text

The classical theories of a reduction for symplectic manifolds (Hamiltonian reductions and coisotropic reductions -- the Marsden-Weinstein theorems) extend to Poisson manifolds and further they appear as a special case of a reduction theorem stated in 1986 by \textit{J. E. Marsden} and \textit{T. Ratiu} [Lett. Math. Phys. 11, 161--169 (1986; Zbl 0602.58016)]. The authors of this paper note that from some point of view the assumptions of the Marsden-Ratiu theorems are too strong. Next, they suggest weaker conditions concerning the pair \(\left( N,B\right)\), where \(N\subset M\) is a submanifold of the Poisson manifold \(M,\) \(B\subset TM_{|N}\) a subbundle with a regular integrable distribution \(F:=B\cap TN\), which ensure the existence of a Poisson structure on \(N/F\) encoding the subbundle \( B.\) The last section is devoted to some applications and examples.
