Abstract: A well known result of Drinfeld classifies Poisson Lie groups

(H, P i)

in terms of Lie algebraic data in the form of Manin triples

(m a t h f r a k d, m a t h f r a k g, m a t h f r a k h)

; he also classified compatible Poisson structures on

H

-homogeneous spaces

H / K

in terms of Lagrangian subalgebras

m a t h f r a k l s u b s e t m a t h f r a k d

with

m a t h f r a k l c a p m a t h f r a k h = m a t h f r a k k = m a t h r m L i e (K)

. Using the language of Courant algebroids and groupoids, Li-Bland and Meinrenken formalized the notion of emph{Dirac Lie groups} and classified them in terms of so-called "

H

-equivariant Dirac Manin triples"

; this generalizes the first result of Drinfeld, as each Poisson Lie group gives a unique Dirac Lie group structure. In this thesis, we consider a notion of homogeneous space for Dirac Lie groups, and classify them in terms of

K

-invariant coisotropic subalgebras

m a t h f r a k c s u b s e t m a t h f r a k d

, with

m a t h f r a k c c a p m a t h f r a k h = m a t h f r a k k

. The relation between Poisson and Dirac morphisms makes Drinfeld's second result a special case of this classification.
