1. Poisson algebraic <strong>Groups</strong> 4<br />

Let (M, π) be a Poisson manifold. Consider the morphism <strong>of</strong> vector<br />

bundle ˇπ : T ∗ M → TM induced by π, we have<br />

Definition 1.1.8. A Poisson manifold is called symplectic manifold if the<br />

map ˇπ is an isomorphism.<br />

1.1.2 Symplectic leaves<br />

One <strong>of</strong> the most fundamental facts in the theory <strong>of</strong> Poisson manifolds is<br />

that for any Poisson manifold M there is a stratification <strong>of</strong> M by symplectic<br />

submanifolds which are called symplectic leaves in M. In a certain sense,<br />

symplectic manifolds are simple objects in the category <strong>of</strong> Poisson manifolds.<br />

In what follows we assume that M is a smooth Poisson manifold.<br />

Definition 1.1.9. A Hamiltonian curve on a smooth Poisson manifold M<br />

is a smooth curve γ : [0, 1] → M such that there exist f ∈ C ∞ (M) with the<br />

property that<br />

˙γ(t) = ξf(γ(t))<br />

for any t ∈ (0, 1)<br />

Definition 1.1.10. Let M be a smooth Poisson manifold.<br />

1. We say that two points x, y ∈ M are equivalent if they can be connected<br />

by a piecewise Hamiltonian curve.<br />

2. An equivalence class <strong>of</strong> points <strong>of</strong> M is called symplectic leaf <strong>of</strong> M<br />

Property. Let S be a symplectic leaf <strong>of</strong> a smooth Poisson manifold M.<br />

Then:<br />

(i) S is a Poisson submanifold <strong>of</strong> M;<br />

(ii) S is a symplectic manifold;<br />

(iii) M is the union <strong>of</strong> its symplectic leaves.<br />

We need a tool to determine symplectic leaves.<br />

Definition 1.1.11. Let P1 and P2 be Poisson manifolds, S a symplectic<br />

f1<br />

manifold. A <strong>di</strong>agram P1 ← S f2<br />

→ P2 is called a dual pair, if f1 and f2<br />

are Poisson maps and the Poisson subalgebras f ∗ 1 C∞ (P1) and f ∗ 2 C∞ (P2) <strong>of</strong><br />

C∞ (S) centralize each other with respect to the Poisson bracket.<br />

A dual pair is called full if f1 and f2 are submersions.<br />

f1<br />

Theorem 1.1.12. Let P1 ← S f2<br />

→ P2 be a full dual pair. Then the blow-up<br />

−1<br />

Mx1 = f2f1 (x1) is a symplectic leaf in P2 for any x1 ∈ P1.<br />
