Geometrical Aspects of the Hamiltonization Problem of Dynamical Systems

Some positive answers to the problem of endowing a dynamical system with a Hamiltonian formulation are presented within the class of Poisson structures in a geometric framework. We address this problem on orientable manifolds and by using decomposable Poisson structures. In the first case, the existence of a Hamiltonian formulation is ensured under the vanishing of some topological obstructions, improving a result of Gao. In the second case, we apply a variant of the Hojman construction to solve the problem for vector fields admitting a transversally invariant metric and, in particular, for infinitesimal generators of proper actions. Finally, we also consider the hamiltonization problem for Lie group actions and give solutions in the particular case in which the acting Lie group is a low-dimensional torus.

Bigraded cochain complexes and Poisson cohomology

We present an algebraic framework for the computation of low-degree cohomology of a class of bigraded complexes which arise in Poisson geometry around (pre)symplectic leaves. We also show that this framework can be applied to the more general context of Lie algebroids. Finally, we apply our results to compute the low-degree cohomology in some particular cases.

On the splitting of infinitesimal Poisson automorphisms around symplectic leaves

A geometric description of the first Poisson cohomology groups is given in the semilocal context, around (possibly singular) symplectic leaves. This result is based on the splitting theorems for infinitesimal automorphisms of coupling Poisson structures which describe the interaction between the tangential and transversal data of the characteristic distributions. As a consequence, we derive some criteria of vanishing of the first Poisson cohomology groups and apply the general splitting formulas to some particular classes of Poisson structures associated with singular symplectic foliations.

Unimodularity Criteria for Poisson Structures on Foliated Manifolds

We study the behavior of the modular class of an orientable Poisson manifold and formulate some unimodularity criteria in the semilocal context, around a (singular) symplectic leaf. Our results generalize some known unimodularity criteria for regular Poisson manifolds related to the notion of the Reeb class. In particular, we show that the unimodularity of the transverse Poisson structure of the leaf is a necessary condition for the semilocal unimodular property. Our main tool is an explicit formula for a bigraded decomposition of modular vector fields of a coupling Poisson structure on a foliated manifold. Moreover, we also exploit the notion of the modular class of a Poisson foliation and its relationship with the Reeb class.
