A promenade through singular symplectic geometry Authors Pablo Nicolás Martínez DOI: 10.2436/20.2002.02.43 Keywords: Poisson geometry, reduction, minimal coupling, Lie algebroid. Abstract In this article, we present symplectic and Poisson geometry from the perspective of Hamiltonian mechanics. We then introduce symplectic Lie algebroids, objects which lie between symplectic and Poisson manifolds. Afterwards, we recall the notion of symplectic reduction under the existence of a moment map. As an application of this construction, we describe the phase space of a charged particle interacting with a Yang–Mills field. Finally, we introduce a singular analogue of this construction and provide physical examples. Downloads Download data is not yet available. Downloads PDF How to Cite Nicolás Martínez, P. (2024).
