Abstract: Let M be a smooth closed orientable manifold and mathcalP(M) the space of Poisson structures on M. We construct a Poisson bracket on mathcalP(M) depending on a choice of volume form. The Hamiltonian flow of the bracket acts on mathcalP(M) by volume-preserving diffeomorphism of M. We then define an invariant of a Poisson structure that describes fixed points of the flow equation and compute it for regular Poisson 3-manifolds, where it detects unimodularity. For unimodular Poisson structures we define a further, related Poisson bracket and show that for symplectic structures the associated invariant counting fixed points of the flow equation is given in terms of the ddLambda and d+dLambda symplectic cohomology groups defined by Tseng and Yau.
