For a real Hilbert space (H,〈,〉), a subspace L ⊂ H ⊕H is said to
be a Dirac structure on H if it is maximally isotropic with respect to the
pairing 〈(x,y),(x′,y′)〉+=[1/2] (〈x,y′〉+〈x′,y〉). Investigating
some
basic properties of these structures, it is shown that Dirac structures on H
are in one-to-one correspondence with isometries on H, and any two Dirac
structures are isometric. It is also proved that any Dirac structure on a
smooth manifold in the sense of [1] yields a Dirac
structure on some Hilbert space. The graph of any densely defined skew
symmetric linear operator on a Hilbert space is also shown to be a Dirac
structure. For a Dirac structure L on H, every z ∈ H is uniquely
decomposed as z=p1(l)+p2(l) for some l ∈ L, where p1 and p2 are
projections. When p1 (L) is closed, for any Hilbert subspace W ⊂ H,
an induced Dirac structure on W is introduced. The latter concept has also
been generalized.
