Marsden. Poisson geometry is closely related to symplectic geometry, and this is one of the main themes of this book. For example, every symplectic manifold has a natural Poisson bracket and every Poisson bracket determines a foliation of the manifold by symplectic submanifolds. Also, a smooth quotient of a symplectic manifold by.
