Poisson–Lie Groups and Gauge Theory

We review Poisson–Lie groups and their applications in gauge theory and integrable systems from a mathematical physics perspective. We also comment on recent results and developments and their applications. In particular, we discuss the role of quasitriangular Poisson–Lie groups and dynamical <i&...
