Abstract: This paper is devoted to algebro-geometric study of infinite dimensional Lie bialgebras, which arise from solutions of the classical Yang-Baxter equation. We regard trigonometric solutions of this equation as twists of the standard Lie bialgebra cobracket on an appropriate affine Lie algebra and work out the corresponding theory of Manin triples, putting it into an algebro-geometric context. As a consequence of this approach, we prove that any trigonometric solution of the classical Yang-Baxter equation arises from an appropriate algebro-geometric datum. The developed theory is illustrated by some concrete examples.


The aim of this article is to study the algebro-geometric properties of Lie bialgebras of infinite dimension, resulting from the solutions of the classical Yang-Baxter equation. The authors regard trigonometric solutions of this equation as twists of the standard Lie bialgebra cobracket on an appropriate affine Lie algebra and work out the corresponding theory of Manin triples, putting it into an algebro-geometric context. As a consequence of this approach, they prove that any trigonometric solution of the classical Yang-Baxter equation arises from an appropriate algebro-geometric datum. The developed theory is illustrated by some concrete examples. The paper is organized as follows. Section 1, is an introduction to the subject. Section 2 deals with Lie bialgebras and Lagrangian decompositions. Here the authors elaborate (following the work of \textit{E. Karolinsky} and \textit{A. Stolin} [Lett. Math. Phys. 60, No. 3, 257--274 (2002; Zbl 1006.17019)]) the theory of twists of a given Lie bialgebra cobracket. The main result of this section describes such twists in the terms of appropriate Manin triples. In Section 3 necessary notions and results of the structure theory of affine Lie algebras and twisted loop algebras are reviewed. In particular, the authors recall the description of the standard Lie bialgebra cobracket \(\mathcal{G}\stackrel{\delta_0}\longrightarrow\Lambda^2(\mathcal{G})\) for an affine Lie algebra \(\mathcal{G}\cong\mathcal{L}\). The main new result of this section asserts that any bounded Lie subalgebra \(\mathcal{D}\subset\mathcal{L}\), which is coisotropic with respect to the standard bilinear form \(\mathcal{L}\times\mathcal{L}\longrightarrow\mathbb{C}\), is stable under the multiplication with elements of the polynomial algebra \(\mathbb{C}[t]\). In Section 4, the authors apply the theory of twists of Lie bialgebra cobrackets, developed in Section 2, to the particular case of \((\mathcal{L}, \delta_0)\). The main results of this section give a classification of the twisted Lie bialgebra cobrackets \(\mathcal{L}\stackrel{\delta_t}\longrightarrow\Lambda^2(\mathcal{L})\) via appropriate Manin triples. Section 5 is devoted to the algebro-geometric theory of the classical Yang-Baxter equation (CYBE). In Section 6, the authors continue the algebro-geometric study of solutions of CYBE, started in Section 5. Section 7 deals with some explicit computations. They concern explicit geometrization of certain solutions for \(sl_n(\mathbb{C})\) and explicit geometrization of quasi-constant solutions of CYBE. The paper is supported by appendices concerning various constructions of Lie bialgebras arising from solutions of the classical Yang-Baxter equation: road map to this work, infinite dimensional Lie bialgebras and twists of the standard Lie bialgebra structure on a twisted loop algebra.
