Integration of quasi-poisson structures




Abstract:

It is a well know fact that Poisson structures integrate (at least locally) to a symplectic groupoid. In this talk we will explain a similar theorem for quasi-Poisson structures, namely that they integrate (at least locally) to quasi-Hamiltonian groupoids.
