Affine Poisson Structures in Analytical Mechanics

  • Chapter

Abstract

If the space-time is a product of the space and the time the Poisson structure on the phase bundle is used to describe dynamics of mechanical systems. Further it is shown that if the space-time is a fibration over the time, then the Poisson structure has to be replaced by an affine Poisson structure.
