The aim of this paper is to suggest a general approach to Poisson brackets, based on the study of the Lie algebra of potential operators with respect to closed skew-symmetric bilinear forms. This approach allows to extend easily to infinite-dimensional spaces the classical Cartan geometrical approach developed in the phase space.

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to suggest a general approach to Poisson brackets, based on the study of the Lie algebra of potential operators with respect to closed skew-symmetric bilinear forms. This approach allows to extend easily to infinite-dimensional spaces the classical Cartan geometrical approach developed in the phase space. It supplies a simple, unified, and general formalism to deal with such brackets, which contains, as particular cases, the classical and the quantum treatments. © 1976.
