Book Details
First Sentence
"This paper builds on three ideas pursued by Alan Weinstein in some of his many fundamental contributions to Poisson geometry: First, Lie algebroids play a prominent role in the study of Poisson manifolds [8, 30]; second, Poisson maps can be regarded as generalized momentum maps for actions of symplectic groupoids [25, 31]; third, Poisson structures on manifolds are particular examples of more general objects called Dirac structures [12, 13, 28]."
