Symplectic structures on stratified pseudomanifolds

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We introduce a sheaf-theoretic definition of symplectic form on a smooth stratified pseudomanifold in the framework of Cinfty-ringed space theory. This structure gives an isomorphism between the tangent sheaf and the torsion-free cotangent sheaf of the pseudomanifold. In particular, we show that the singular reduced space M0 of a symplectic Hamiltonian G-manifold (M,omega,G,mu) is equipped with a natural structure of a symplectic stratified pseudomanifold. Consequently, it follows that the stratum-wise symplectic forms on the orbit-type strata of M0 defined by Sjamaar--Lerman extend uniquely to a sheaf-theoretic symplectic form on M0, which characterises the Poisson structure on M0 introduced by Arms--Cushman--Gotay.
