It is shown that Nambu-Poisson and Nambu-Jacobi brackets can be defined inductively: a n-bracket, n>2, is Nambu-Poisson (resp. Nambu-Jacobi) if and only if fixing an argument we get a (n-1)-Nambu-Poisson (resp. Nambu-Jacobi) bracket. As a by-product we get relatively simple proofs of Darboux-type theorems for these structures.

We review the AKSZ construction as applied to the topological open membranes and Poisson sigma models. We describe a generalization to open topological p-branes and Nambu-Poisson sigma models.
We propose an extension of n-ary Nambu-Poisson bracket to superspace R^{n|m} and construct by means of superdeterminant a family of Nambu-Poisson algebras of even degree functions, where the parameter of this family is an invertible transformation of Grassmann coordinates in superspace R^{n|m}. We prove in the case of the superspaces R^{n|1} and R^{n|2} that our n-ary bracket, defined with the help of superdeterminant, satisfies the conditions for n-ary Nambu-Poisson bracket, i.e. it is totally skew-symmetric and it satisfies the Leibniz rule and the Filippov-Jacobi identity (fundamental ident…
We prove that many aspects of the differential geometry of embedded Riemannian manifolds can be formulated in terms of a multi-linear algebraic structure on the space of smooth functions. In particular, we find algebraic expressions for Weingarten's formula, the Ricci curvature and the Codazzi-Mainardi equations.
The paper provides a survey of known results on geometric aspects related to Nambu-Poisson brackets.
We extend the Nambu bracket to 1-forms. Following the Poisson-Lie case, we define Nambu-Lie groups as Lie groups endowed with a multiplicative Nambu structure. A Lie group G with a Nambu structure P is a Nambu-Lie group iff P=0 at the unit and the Nambu bracket of left (right) invariant forms is left (right) invariant. We define a corresponding notion of a Nambu-Lie algebra. We give several examples of Nambu-Lie groups and algebras.
A few generalizations of a Poisson algebra to field theory canonically formulated in terms of the polymomentum variables are discussed. A graded Poisson bracket on differential forms and an $(n+1)$-ary bracket on functions are considered. The Poisson bracket on differential forms gives rise to various generalizations of a Gerstenhaber algebra: the noncommutative (in the sense of Loday) and the higher-order (in the sense of the higher order graded Leibniz rule). The $(n+1)$-ary bracket fulfills the properties of the Nambu bracket including the ``fundamental identity'', thus leading to the Nambu…
We show that one can skip the skew-symmetry assumption in the definition of Nambu-Poisson brackets. In other words, a n-ary bracket on the algebra of smooth functions which satisfies the Leibniz rule and a n-ary version of the Jacobi identity must be skew-symmetric. A similar result holds for a non-antisymmetric version of Lie algebroids.
In this paper, we study the algebraic properties of the higher analogues of Courant algebroid structures on the direct sum bundle $TM\oplus\wedge^nT^*M$ for an $m$-dimensional manifold. As an application, we revisit Nambu-Poisson structures and multisymplectic structures. We prove that the graph of an $(n+1)$-vector field $π$ is closed under the higher-order Dorfman bracket iff $π$ is a Nambu-Poisson structure. Consequently, there is an induced Leibniz algebroid structure on $\wedge^nT^*M$. The graph of an $(n+1)$-form $ω$ is closed under the higher-order Dorfman bracket iff $ω$ is a premultis…
Motivated by the quest to understand the analog of non-geometric flux compactification in the context of M-theory, we study higher dimensional analogs of generalized Poisson sigma models and corresponding dual string and p-brane models. We find that higher generalizations of the algebraic structures due to Dorfman, Roytenberg and Courant play an important role and establish their relation to Nambu-Poisson structures.
A remark on the linearization of nondegenerate Nambu structures of coorder 1
本文证明了余阶为1的Nambu结构在存在闭可积微分形式时总可线性化，并由此推出迷向李代数为sl(2,R)的幺模泊松结构总可线性化。
We look at generalized complex structures from the point of view of Poisson and Dirac geometry and we remark that the puzzling equations underlying the notion of generalized complex structure have miraculously simple meaning when passing to Lie algebroids/groupoids.
The covariant canonical formalism is a covariant extension of the traditional canonical formalism of fields. In contrast to the traditional canonical theory, it has a remarkable feature that canonical equations of gauge theories or gravity are not only manifestly Lorentz covariant but also gauge covariant or diffeomorphism covariant. A mathematical peculiarity of the covariant canonical formalism is that its canonical coordinates are differential forms on a manifold. In the present paper, we find a natural Poisson bracket of this new canonical theory, and study symplectic structure behind it. …
One (actually, almost the only effective) way to prove formality of a differentiable manifold is to be able to produce a suitable derivation $δ$ such that $dδ$-lemma holds. We first show that such derivation $δ$ generates a (1,1)-tensor field (we denote it by $R$). Then, we show that the supercommutation of $d$ and $δ$ (which is a natural, essentially necessary condition to get a $dδ$-lemma) is equivalent to vanishing of the Nijenhujis torsion of $R$. Then, we are looking for sufficient conditions that ensure the $dδ$-lemma holds: we consider the cases when $R$ is self adjoint with respect to …
