Abstract
It is known that any Poisson manifold can be embedded into a bigger space which admits a description in terms of a global symplectic structure. Such a procedure is known as a symplectic realization and has a number of important applications like the quantization of the original Poisson manifold. In the present paper we extend the above idea to the case of quasi-Poisson structures which should not necessarily satisfy the Jacobi identity. For any given quasi-Poisson structure we provide a closed recursive formula for local embedding functions and Darboux coordinates. Our construction is illustrated for the examples of the constant R-flux algebra, quasi-Poisson structure isomorphic to the commutator algebra of imaginary octonions and the non-geometric M-theory R-flux background. In all cases we derive explicit formulas for the symplectic realization and the corresponding expression for Darboux coordinates.
