    Coupling symmetries with Poisson structures

    Full text link
    We study local normal forms for completely integrable systems on Poisson manifolds in the presence of additional symmetries. The symmetries that we consider are encoded in actions of compact Lie groups. The existence of Weinstein's splitting theorem for the integrable system is also studied giving some examples in which such a splitting does not exist, i.e. when the integrable system is not, locally, a product of an integrable system on the symplectic leaf and an integrable system on a transversal. The problem of splitting for integrable systems with additional symmetries is also considered.Comment: 14 page

    A cohomological framework for homotopy moment maps

    Full text link
    Given a Lie group acting on a manifold MM preserving a closed n+1n+1-form ω\omega, the notion of homotopy moment map for this action was introduced in Callies-Fregier-Rogers-Zambon [6], in terms of L∞L_{\infty}-algebra morphisms. In this note we describe homotopy moment maps as coboundaries of a certain complex. This description simplifies greatly computations, and we use it to study various properties of homotopy moment maps: their relation to equivariant cohomology, their obstruction theory, how they induce new ones on mapping spaces, and their equivalences. The results we obtain extend some of the results of [6].Comment: 18 pages, final version. Added reference [16] by L. Ryvkin and T. Wurzbacher, who obtain independently results similar to ours putting an emphasis on the differential geometry of multisymplectic form
