AKSZ construction for shifted Poisson structures

Abstract: We prove the AKSZ theorem for shifted Poisson structures: if $X$ is an $n$-shifted Poisson derived stack, and $Y$ a $d$-oriented derived stack, then the mapping stack [\underline{\mathrm{Map}}(Y,X)] is naturally endowed with an $(n-d)$-shifted Poisson structure. For this, we prove that the data of an $n$-shifted Poisson structure on a derived Artin stack is equivalent to the data of an $(n+1)$-shifted Lagrangian thickening of it. We also extend the definition of shifted Poisson structures to derived prestacks having a deformation theory and give two applications, one for mapping stacks with a non-proper source and one in BV formalism.
