The Zariski cancellation problem for Poisson algebras

We study the Zariski cancellation problem for Poisson algebras asking whether $A[t]\cong B[t]$ implies $A\cong B$ when $A$ and $B$ are Poisson algebras. We resolve this affirmatively in the cases when $A$ and $B$ are both connected graded Poisson algebras finitely generated in degree one without degree one Poisson central elements and when $A$ is a Poisson integral domain of Krull dimension two with nontrivial Poisson bracket. We further introduce Poisson analogues of the Makar-Limanov invariant and the discriminant to deal with the Zariski cancellation problem for other families of Poisson algebras.
