The Poisson Realization of so(2, 2k+2) on Magnetic Leaves
Abstract: Let ${\mathbb R}{2k+1}_*={\mathbb R}{2k+1}\setminus{\vec 0}$ ($k\ge 1$) and $\pi$: ${\mathbb R}{2k+1}_*\to \mathrm{S}{2k}$ be the map sending $\vec r\in {\mathbb R}{2k+1}_*$ to ${\vec r\over |\vec r|}\in \mathrm{S}{2k}$. Denote by $P\to {\mathbb R}{2k+1}_*$ the pullback by $\pi$ of the canonical principal $\mathrm{SO}(2k)$-bundle $\mathrm{SO}(2k+1)\to \mathrm{S}{2k} $. Let $E_\sharp\to {\mathbb R}{2k+1}_*$ be the associated co-adjoint bundle and $E\sharp\to T*{\mathbb R}{2k+1}_*$ be the pullback bundle under projection map $T*{\mathbb R}{2k+1}_*\to {\mathbb R}{2k+1}_*$. The canonical connection on $\mathrm{SO}(2k+1)\to \mathrm{S}{2k} $ turns $E\sharp$ into a Poisson manifold. The main result here is that the real Lie algebra $\mathfrak{so}(2, 2k+2)$ can be realized as a Lie subalgebra of the Poisson algebra $(C\infty(\mathcal O\sharp), {, })$, where $\mathcal O\sharp$ is a symplectic leave of $E\sharp$ of special kind. Consequently, in view of the earlier result of the author, an extension of the classical MICZ Kepler problems to dimension $2k+1$ is obtained. The hamiltonian, the angular momentum, the Lenz vector and the equation of motion for this extension are all explicitly worked out.
