Summary:
Poisson sigma models represent an interesting use of Poisson manifolds for the construction of a classical field theory. Their definition in the language of fibre bundles is shown and the corresponding field equations are derived using a coordinate independent variational principle.
The elegant form of equations of motion for so called Poisson-Lie groups is derived.
Construction of the Poisson-Lie group corresponding to a given Lie bialgebra is widely known only for coboundary Lie bialgebras. Using the adjoint representation of Lie group and Drinfel’d double we show that Poisson-Lie group can be constructed for general Lie bialgebra.
