Orbifolds and orbibundles in complex hyperbolic geometry

Geometric Topology 2023-08-01 v4 Differential Geometry

Abstract

We develop the theory of orbibundles from a geometrical viewpoint using diffeology. One of our goals is to present new tools allowing to calculate invariants of complex hyperbolic disc orbibundles over 22-orbifolds appearing in the geometry of 44-manifolds. These invariants are the Euler number of disc orbibundles and the Toledo invariant of PU(2,1)\mathrm{PU}(2,1)-representations of 22-orbifold groups.
