Poisson–Lie group
Poisson manifold that is also a Lie group / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics, a Poisson–Lie group is a Poisson manifold that is also a Lie group, with the group multiplication being compatible with the Poisson algebra structure on the manifold.
The infinitesimal counterpart of a Poisson–Lie group is a Lie bialgebra, in analogy to Lie algebras as the infinitesimal counterparts of Lie groups.
Many quantum groups are quantizations of the Poisson algebra of functions on a Poisson–Lie group.
