Abstract: | By analogy with the Poisson algebra of quadratic forms on the symplectic plane and with the concept of duality in the projective plane introduced by Arnold (2005) 1], where the concurrence of the triangle altitudes is deduced from the Jacobi identity, we consider the Poisson algebras of the first degree harmonics on the sphere, on the pseudo-sphere and on the hyperboloid, to obtain analogous duality concepts and similar results for spherical, pseudo-spherical and hyperbolic geometry. Such algebras, including the algebra of quadratic forms, are isomorphic either to the Lie algebra of the vectors in R3, with the vector product, or to algebra sl2(R). The Tomihisa identity, introduced in (Tomihisa, 2009) 3] for the algebra of quadratic forms, holds for all these Poisson algebras and has a geometrical interpretation. The relationships between the different definitions of duality in projective geometry inherited by these structures are shown here. |
