The dual space g∗ of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra has this canonical Poisson bracket. For a basis vi, linear coordinates xi(ℓ)=ℓ(vi) give {xi,xj}=ckij​xk. The Lie algebra's Jacobi identity is precisely the coordinate Jacobi condition for a Poisson bivector. This construction is intrinsic on the dual space; writing the same formula in an arbitrary manifold chart does not by itself provide a compatible global atlas.
