Constraint Geometry and Reduction of Dirac Geometry

02.02.2024, 11:00  –  Campus Golm, Building 9, Room 2.22 and Zoom
Forschungsseminar Analysis

David Kern (U. Göttingen)

In this talk we first motivate constraint geometry by recalling Poisson geometry. Afterwards we introduce constraint manifolds as well as constraint vector bundles and prove a constraint Cartan calculus. Finally, we apply it to Dirac manifolds showing their reduction.


We will meet in Room 2.22 Building 9. Here are the login details for those who intend to follow the talk online:
