The tower of Kontsevich deformations for Nambu-Poisson structures on Rd: dimension-specific micro-graph calculus
Abstract
In Kontsevich's graph calculus, internal vertices of directed graphs are inhabited by multi-vectors, e.g., Poisson bi-vectors; the Nambu-determinant Poisson brackets are differential-polynomial in the Casimir(s) and density times Levi-Civita symbol. We resolve the old vertices into subgraphs such that every new internal vertex contains one Casimir or one Levi-Civita symbol×. Using this micro-graph calculus, we show that Kontsevich's tetrahedral γ3-flow on the space of Nambu-determinant Poisson brackets over R3 is a Poisson coboundary: we realize the trivializing vector field X over R3 using micro-graphs. This X projects to the known trivializing vector field for the γ3-flow over R2.
