Dirac structures and Poisson homogeneous spaces

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Poisson homogeneous spaces for Poisson groupoids are classfied in terms of Dirac structures for the corresponding Lie bialgebroids. Applications include Drinfel'd's classification in the case of Poisson groups and a description of leaf spaces of foliations as homogeneous spaces of pair groupoids.


The classification of Poisson homogeneous spaces for Poisson groupoids in terms of Dirac structures for the corresponding Lie bialgebroids is the main result of the paper. Here Dirac structures correspond to Poisson structures on the quotient manifold. As an application, a new proof of Drinfel'd's classification of Poisson homogeneous spaces in the case of Poisson groups is obtained.
