nLab Poisson vertex algebra

A Poisson vertex algebra is a unital commutative associative algebra with a derivation and a λ\lambda-bracket; it has to satisfy the axioms of a Lie conformal algebra; and the λ\lambda-bracket and the multiplication form a Poisson algebra (i.e. satisfy the Leibniz rule). It is a Poisson analogue of a conformal Lie algebra.
