Shifted symplectic structures and Poisson vertex algebra
Abstract
We construct Poisson vertex algebra (PVA) structures on arc spaces from 1-shifted symplectic (QP) data. A Hamiltonian satisfying the classical master equation induces a canonical PVA λ-bracket, matching the Hamiltonian-operator formalism for integrable hierarchies. As applications, we find the resulting PVA sheaves on P1 and reinterpret our classical R-matrix as Maurer-Cartan data in a deformation-theoretic geometric framework, yielding AKS-type integrable hierarchies from the corresponding R-deformations.
