Reduction of ∞-Algebras of Observables on Multisymplectic Manifolds

We develop a reduction scheme for the ∞-algebra of observables on a premultisymplectic manifold (, ) in the presence of a compatible Lie algebra action ↷ and a subset ⊂ . This reproduces in the symplectic setting the Poisson algebra of observables on the Marsden-Weinstein-Meyer symplectic reduced...

description We develop a reduction scheme for the ∞-algebra of observables on a premultisymplectic manifold (, ) in the presence of a compatible Lie algebra action ↷ and a subset ⊂ . This reproduces in the symplectic setting the Poisson algebra of observables on the Marsden-Weinstein-Meyer symplectic reduced space, whenever the reduced space exists, but is otherwise distinct from the Dirac, Śniatycki-Weinstein, and Arms-Cushman-Gotay observable reduction schemes. We examine various examples, including multicotangent bundles and multiphase spaces, and we conclude with a discussion of applications to classical field theories and quantization.

The authors thank Janina Bernardy, Christian Blohmann, Luca Vitagliano, and Marco Zambon for helpful and motivating conversations, and Tatyana Barron for indicating that the premultisymplectic form ω needs only be g-invariant, and not reducible, for the reduced space of observables to be defined. The authors would also like to thank the anonymous referees for their helpful and insightful comments.
