We introduce and study the notion of abelian groups graded Schouten–Nijenhuis bracket on almost commutative algebras and show that any Poisson bracket on such algebras is defined by a graded bivector as in the classical Poisson manifolds. As a particular example, we introduce and study symplectic structures on almost commutative algebras. Our result is a generalization of the ℤ2-graded (super)-Poisson structures.

Abstract This note is devoted to the study of the homology class of a compact Poisson transversal in a Poisson manifold. For specific classes of Poisson structures, such as unimodular Poisson structures and Poisson manifolds with closed leaves, we prove that all their compact Poisson transversals represent nontrivial homology classes, generalizing the symplectic case. We discuss several examples in which this property does not hold, as well as a weaker version of this property, which holds for log-symplectic structures. Finally, we extend our results to Dirac geometry.

Deformation quantization of Poisson manifolds is studied within the framework of an expansion in powers of derivatives of Poisson structures. We construct the Lie group associated with a Poisson bracket algebra which defines a second order deformation in the derivative expansion.

As a generalization of the linear Poisson bracket on the dual space of a Lie algebra, we introduce certain nonlinear Poisson brackets which are "cocycle perturbations" of the linear Poisson bracket. We show that these special Poisson brackets are equivalent to Poisson brackets of central extension type, which resemble the central extensions of an ordinary Lie bracket via Lie algebra cocycles. We are able to formulate (strict) deformation quantizations of these Poisson brackets by means of twisted group C*-algebras. We also indicate that these deformation quantizations can be used to construct some specific non-compact quantum groups.

Several types of generically-nondegenerate Poisson structures can be effectively studied as symplectic structures on naturally associated Lie algebroids. Relevant examples of this phenomenon include log-, elliptic, b<sup>k</sup>-, scattering and elliptic-log Poisson structures. In this paper we discuss topological obstructions to the existence of such Poisson structures, obtained through the characteristic classes of their associated symplectic Lie algebroids. In particular we obtain the full obstructions for surfaces to carry such Poisson structures.

In this paper, we extend the AKSZ formulation of the Poisson sigma model to more general target spaces, and we develop the general theory of graded geometry for poly-symplectic and poly-Poisson structures. In particular, we prove a Schwarz-type theorem and transgression for graded poly-symplectic structures, recovering the action functional and the poly-symplectic structure of the reduced phase space of the poly-Poisson sigma model, from the AKSZ construction.

A Z-graded Lie bracket { , }P on the exterior algebra Ω(M) of differential forms, which is an extension of the Poisson bracket of functions on a Poisson manifold (M,P), is found. This bracket is simultaneously graded skew-symmetric and satisfies the graded Jacobi identity. It is a kind of an 'integral' of the Koszul–Schouten bracket [ , ]P of differential forms in the sense that the exterior derivative is a bracket homomorphism: [dμ, dν]P=d{μ, ν}P. A naturally defined generalized Hamiltonian map is proved to be a homomorphism between { , }P and the Frölicher–Nijenhuis bracket of vector valued forms. Also relations of this graded Poisson bracket to the Schouten–Nijenhuis bracket and an extension of { , }P to a graded bracket on certain multivector fields, being an 'integral' of the Schouten–Nijenhuis bracket, are studied. All these constructions are generalized to tensor fields associated with an arbitrary Lie algebroid.

In this paper, we develop holomorphic Jacobi structures. Holomorphic Jacobi manifolds are in one-to-one correspondence with certain homogeneous holomorphic Poisson manifolds. Furthermore, holomorphic Poisson manifolds can be looked at as special cases of holomorphic Jacobi manifolds. We show that holomorphic Jacobi structures yield a much richer framework than that of holomorphic Poisson structures. We also discuss the relationship between holomorphic Jacobi structures, generalized contact bundles and Jacobi–Nijenhuis structures.
