Manin triples on multiplicative Courant algebroids
Ana Carolina Mançur
Abstract
We extend the characterization of Lie bialgebroids via Manin triples to the context of double structures over Lie groupoids. We consider Lie bialgebroid groupoids, given by LA-groupoids in duality, and establish their correspondence with multiplicative Manin triples, i.e., CA-groupoids equipped with a pair of complementary multiplicative Dirac structures. As an application, we give a new viewpoint to the co-quadratic Lie algebroids of Lang, Qiao, and Yin (2021) and the Manin triple description of Lie bialgebroid crossed modules.
