Workshop on
Lie Groupoids and Lie Algebroids

Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata
December 10 - December 21, 2012

Programme

The inauguration and the lectures will be held in the Lecture Hall in the ground floor of
A. N. Kolmogorov Bhavan.

The first week of the workshop will be completely devoted to the general theory of Lie Groupoids and Lie Algebroids.

Overview of the workshop

  • Gpd I: Lie groupoids: Fundamental groupoid. Tangent groupoid. Action groupoids.

  • Gpd II: Cotangent groupoid of a Lie group. Frame groupoids, gauge groupoids.

  • Gpd III: Bisections. Orbits of a Lie groupoid. Locally trivial Lie groupoids.

  • Algbd I: Lie algebroids: Tangent bundle. Lie algebroid of a Lie groupoid.

  • Algbd II : Principal Bundle & Atiyah sequence.

  • Algbd III: Correspondence between Lie algebroids and Schouten algebra

  • Algbd IV: Derivations of a Lie Algbd. Representsations of Lie Algebroids.

  • Algbd V: Lie Algebroid cohomology

  • Poisson I: Symplectic manifolds

  • Poisson II: Poisson manifolds. Examples.

  • Poisson III: Local description of Poisson manifolds. Characteristic foliations.

  • Poisson IV: Correspondence between Lie algebroids and Poisson vector bundles.

  • Poisson V: Lie groupoids and Lie algebroids associated to Poisson manifolds.

  • Lie Theory I: Integrability of Lie Algebroids – an overview
