Title: A (gentle) introduction to Poisson geometry, Part 2

Abstract:  

This is the second part of an introduction to Poisson geometry.  In this part, I will discuss the geometry of Poisson manifolds, such as their symplectic leaves, through the use of illustrative examples. I will also briefly discuss the quantization of Poisson manifolds.
