Abstract: Motivated by the work of Leznov--Mostovoy, we classify the linear deformations of standard

-dimensional phase space that preserve the obvious symplectic

T^{*} S^{n}

and

T^{*} m a t h b b H^{n}

with their standard symplectic forms, as degenerations of a 3-dimensional family of coadjoint orbits, which in a generic regime are identified with the Grassmannian of oriented 2-planes in

Review text

Deformations and coadjoint orbits of the Lie algebra \(g_n=o(n)+h_n\), are considered. Here \(h_n\) is the Heisenberg Lie algebra -- it is a central extension of the abelian Lie algebra, and \(o(n)\) acts trivially on the extension term. The author works with complex Lie algebras, since all real deformations of \(g_n\) can be regarded as possible real forms of a complex deformation of the complexification of \(g_n\). The main result is the follows (Theorem 1.1). Let \(n \ge 3\), then the space of infinitesimal deformations of \(g^{\mathbf{C}}_n\) is three-dimensional. Every infinitesimal deformation here is integrable and the generic deformation is isomorphic to \(o(n + 2;\mathbf{C})\). The rest of the article is a series of applications of Theorem 1.1. Some description of the general family of coadjoint orbits, induced by deformations of \(g_n\), that correspond to the deformations of standard phase space, is given. Then a descriptions of some geometric structures on these orbits, corresponding to the induced deformations of the position and momentum polarizations in phase space, and the Euclidean group momentum map corresponding to the free-motion Hamiltonian, are given. In the Appendix a standard phase space is considered as a coadjoint orbit. Some consequences of such consideration are presented.
