Connections on Lie groupoids and Chern-Weil theory

• Mathematics
• 2020
. Let X = [ X 1 ⇒ X 0 ] be a Lie groupoid equipped with a connection, given by a smooth distribution H ⊂ T X 1 transversal to the ﬁbers of the source map. Under the assumption that the distribution H

FOUR EQUIVALENT VERSIONS OF NONABELIAN GERBES

• Mathematics
• 2011
We recall and partially expand four versions of smooth, non-abelian gerbes: Cech cocycles, classifying maps, bundle gerbes, and principal 2-bundles. We prove that all these four versions are

A global perspective to connections on principal 2-bundles

For a strict Lie 2-group, we develop a notion of Lie 2-algebra-valued differential forms on Lie groupoids, furnishing a differential graded-commutative Lie algebra equipped with an adjoint action

Pontrjagin duality on multiplicative Gerbes.

• Mathematics
• 2020
We use Segal-Mitchison's cohomology of topological groups to define a convenient model for topological gerbes. We introduce multiplicative gerbes over topological groups in this setup and we define

ON 2-HOLONOMY

• Mathematics
Journal of the Australian Mathematical Society
• 2019
Abstract We construct a cycle in higher Hochschild homology associated to the two-dimensional torus which represents 2-holonomy of a nonabelian gerbe in the same way as the ordinary holonomy of a

Introduction to Differentiable Stacks (and gerbes, moduli spaces ...)

Many interesting geometric objects in (algebraic or differential) geometry or mathematical/theoretical physics are not manifolds or do not carry the “correct” manifold structure. Typical such

Bundle gerbes

. Just as C × principal bundles provide a geometric realisation of two-dimensional integral cohomology; gerbes or sheaves of groupoids, provide a geometric realisation of three dimensional integral

The basic gerbe over a compact simple Lie group

Let \$G\$ be a compact, simply connected simple Lie group. We give a construction of an equivariant gerbe with connection on \$G\$, with equivariant 3-curvature representing a generator of \$H^3_G(G,\Z)\$.

Sheaf theory for stacks in manifolds and twisted cohomology for S 1 -gerbes

• Mathematics
• 2007
In this paper we give a sheaf theory interpretation of the twisted cohomology of manifolds. To this end we develop a sheaf theory on smooth stacks. The derived push-forward of the constant sheaf with

Nonabelian Bundle Gerbes, Their Differential Geometry and Gauge Theory

• Physics
• 2005
Bundle gerbes are a higher version of line bundles, we present nonabelian bundle gerbes as a higher version of principal bundles. Connection, curving, curvature and gauge transformations are studied

Deformation quantization modules I:Finiteness and duality

• Mathematics
• 2008
We introduce the notion of being cohomologically complete for objects of the derived category of sheaves of \$Z[\hbar]\$-modules on a topological space. Then we consider a \$Z[\hbar]\$-algebra satisfying

Bundle Gerbes: Stable Isomorphism and Local Theory

• Mathematics
• 1999
The notion of stable isomorphism of bundle gerbes is considered. It has the consequence that the stable isomorphism classes of bundle gerbes over a manifold M are in bijective correspondence with
