Manin pairs and moment maps

الأصل · EN

A Lie group G in a group pair (D,G), integrating a Lie algebra g in a Manin pair (d,g) has a quasi-Poisson structure. We define the quasi-Poisson actions of such Lie groups G, that generalize the Poisson actions of Poisson Lie groups. We define and study the moment maps for those quasi-Poisson actions which are quasi-hamiltonian. These moment maps take values in the homogeneous space D/G. We prove an analogue of the hamiltonian reduction theorem for quasi-Poisson group actions, and we study the symplectic leaves of the orbit spaces of quasi-hamiltonian spaces.
