Free motion on the Poisson plane and sphere
Abstract
Poisson plane and sphere --- homogeneous spaces of Poisson groups E(2) and SU(2) (resp.) --- have phase spaces (corresponding symplectic groupoids), in which a free Hamiltonian is naturally defined. We solve the equations of motion and point out some unexpected features: free motion on the plane is bounded (periodic) and free trajectories on the sphere are all circles except the big ones.
