Abstract
In this paper, we introduce a simplicial analog of classifying spaces for commutativity which classify principal bundles with commutativity structure on their transition functions. Our construction , which takes as input a simplicial group and a cosimplicial group that encodes the additional structure such as commutativity, is a variation of the -construction for simplicial groups. Our main result shows that the geometric realization of our is homotopy equivalent to the topological classifying space .
