Jacobi manifolds and Lie algebroids
Sala P3.10-Dep. Mat./IST

Resumo:

A Jacobi manifold is a differentiable manifold equipped with a bivector and a vector field verifying some compatibility conditions. When the vector field vanishes identically the Jacobi manifold is a Poisson manifold. But there are some other examples of Jacobi structures that are not Poisson, such as contact manifolds. We will exhibit some relations between Jacobi structures are Lie algebroids.
