Abstract

The main result of this paper is an extension to Poisson bundles [4] and Lie algebroids of the classical result that a linear map of Lie algebras is a morphism of Lie algebras if and only if its dual is a Poisson morphism. In formulating this extension we introduce a second class of structural maps for vector bundles, which we call comorphisms, alongside the standard morphisms, and we further show that this concept of comorphism, in conjunction with a corresponding concept for modules, allows one to extend to arbitrary base-changing morphisms of arbitrary vector bundles the familiar duality and section functors which are normally denned only in the base-preserving case.
