Hierarchies and compatibility on Courant algebroids

Paulo Antunes, Camille Laurent-Gengoux and Joana M. Nunes da Costa

Vol. 261 (2013), No. 1, 1–32
Abstract

We introduce Poisson–Nijenhuis, deforming-Nijenhuis and Nijenhuis pairs that extend to Courant algebroids the notion of a Poisson–Nijenhuis manifold, both the Poisson and the Nijenhuis structures being (1,1)-tensors on a Courant algebroid. In each case, we construct the natural hierarchies by successive deformation by one of the (1,1)-tensors.
