A general construction of poisson brackets on exact multusymplectic manifolds

Abstract: In this note the long standing problem of the definition of a Poisson bracket in the framework of a multisymplectic formulation of classical field theory is solved. The new bracket operation can be applied to forms of arbitary degree. Relevant examples are discussed and important properties are stated with proofs sketched.

“…The extended Hamiltonian formalism has already been used for defining Poisson brackets in field theories [14]. It could provide new insights into some classical problems, such as: reduction of multisymplectic Hamiltonian systems with symmetry, integrability, and quantization of multisymplectic Hamiltonian field theories.…”

“…In this way, solutions to equations (8) are determined locally from the relations (13) and (15), and through the n independent linear equations (14). Therefore, there are n(m 2 − 1) arbitrary functions.…”

“…A whole literature exists about properties of such structure, which is generically referred to as multisymplectic geometry of M π (see references in [49]). In particular, efforts were made to find multisymplectic analogues of all properties of T * Q (including, for instance, the Poisson bracket [21,22,24,36,38]). Now, it is natural to wonder if it is possible to reasonably further generalize in two different directions.…”

“…All these aspects are discussed in Sections 2 and 3 (furthermore, a quick review on multivector fields and connections is given in Appendix A.2). Moreover, multivector fields are also used in order to state generalized Poisson brackets in the Hamiltonian formalism of field theories [34,50,51,52,88].…”
