Double groupoid cohomology and extensions
Abstract
We study extensions of double groupoids in the sense of \cite{AN2} and show some classical results of group theory extensions in the case of double groupoids. For it, given a double groupoid \emph{acting} on an abelian group bundle , we introduce a cohomology double complex, in a similar way as was done in \cite{AN2} and we show that the extensions of by are classified by the total first cohomology group of the associated total complex. With the aim to extend the above results to the topological setting, following ideas of Deligne \cite{D} and Tu \cite{tu}, by means of simplicial methods, we introduce a \emph{sheaf cohomology} for topological double groupoids, generalizing the double groupoid cohomological in the discrete case, and we carry out in the topological setting the results obtained for discrete double groupoids.
