Abstract

 

After a brief introduction to Poisson geometry, I shall introduce some elements of analysis on Poisson manifolds equipped with a Riemannian structure, namely, the (L2)-Poisson homology, the Poisson-Riemannian connection, the Laplacian operator, and a Bochner type-identity. I shall explain the relation between these objects, as well as indicate some of the associated open problems.
