Modular classes of Q-manifolds: a review and some applications

Andrew James Bruce (2017)

Archivum Mathematicum

A Q-manifold is a supermanifold equipped with an odd vector field that squares to zero. The notion of the modular class of a Q-manifold – which is viewed as the obstruction to the existence of a Q-invariant Berezin volume – is not well know. We review the basic ideas and then apply this technology to various examples, including L -algebroids and higher Poisson manifolds.

Multiplicative integrable models from Poisson-Nijenhuis structures

Francesco Bonechi (2015)

Banach Center Publications

We discuss the role of Poisson-Nijenhuis (PN) geometry in the definition of multiplicative integrable models on symplectic groupoids. These are integrable models that are compatible with the groupoid structure in such a way that the set of contour levels of the hamiltonians in involution inherits a topological groupoid structure. We show that every maximal rank PN structure defines such a model. We consider the examples defined on compact hermitian symmetric spaces studied by F. Bonechi, J. Qiu...
