Description
Summary:We semiclassicalise the theory of quantum group principal bundles to the level of Poisson geometry. The total space 𝑋 is a Poisson manifold with Poisson-compatible contravariant connection, the fibre is a Poisson-Lie group in the sense of Drinfeld with bicovariant Poisson-compatible contravariant connection, and the base has an inherited Poisson structure and Poisson-compatible contravariant connection. The latter are known to be the semiclassical data for a quantum differential calculus. The theory is illustrated by the Poisson level of the 𝑞-Hopf fibration on the standard 𝑞-sphere. We also construct the Poisson level of the spin connection on a principal bundle.
