Review text

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0726.00014.] Different candidates for the role played by the Marsden-Weinstein reduced phase space and its Poisson algebra when zero is not a regular value of the momentum map are discussed. A system is called almost regular if two of these, the Dirac algebra and the reduced Poisson algebra, are isomorphic. The question how to extend these notions to infinite dimensions is posed, and the hope expressed that Yang-Mills theory should then be almost regular.
