We study fiber bundles where the fibers are not a group $G$, but a free $G$-space with disjoint orbits. These bundles closely resemble principal bundles, hence we call them semi-principal bundles. The study of such bundles is facilitated by…

We develop a gauge theory or theory of bundles and connections on them at the level of braids and tangles. Extending recent algebraic work, we provide now a fully diagrammatic treatment of principal bundles, a theory of global gauge…

The theory of principal bundles makes sense in any infinity-topos, such as that of topological, of smooth, or of otherwise geometric infinity-groupoids/infinity-stacks, and more generally in slices of these. It provides a natural geometric…

This is the first in a series of papers constructing geometric models of twisted differential K-theory. In this paper we construct a model of even twisted differential K-theory when the underlying topological twist represents a torsion…

We introduce a theory of twisted simplicial distributions on simplicial principal bundles, which allow us to capture Bell's non-locality, and the more general notion of quantum contextuality. We leverage the classical theory of simplicial…

A generalization of classical gauge theory is presented, in the framework of a noncommutative-geometric formalism of quantum principal bundles over smooth manifolds. Quantum counterparts of classical gauge bundles, and classical gauge…

Tractors and Twistors bundles both provide natural conformally covariant calculi on $4D$-Riemannian manifolds. They have different origins but are closely related, and usually constructed bottom-up through prolongation of defining…

We provide a pedagogical introduction to the theory of principal 2-bundles with adjusted connections and show how they enter the description of geometric and non-geometric T-dualities as proposed in arXiv:2204.01783. This description…

In this work we introduce a notion of tensor product of (twisted) quiver representations with relations in the category of $\mathcal{O}_X$-modules. As a first application of our notion, we see that tensor products of polystable quiver…

A duality is discussed for Lie group bundles vs. certain tensor categories with non-simple identity, in the setting of Nistor-Troitsky gauge-equivariant K-theory. As an application, we study C*-algebra bundles with fibre a fixed-point…

We propose a conceptually economical and computationally tractable completion of the foundations of gauge theory on quantum principal bundles \`{a} la Brzezi\'{n}ski--Majid to the case of general differential calculi and strong bimodule…

Many-to-one maps are ubiquitous in machine learning, from the image recognition model that assigns a multitude of distinct images to the concept of "cat" to the time series forecasting model which assigns a range of distinct time-series to…

It is interesting to know, how far we can generalize the notion of a group-valued cocycle keeping the property to determine a bundle. We find a generalization for pairs of cocycles and show how these generalized pairs of cocycles can still…

We construct and study pushforwards of categorical connections on categorical principal bundles. Applying this construction to the case of decorated path spaces in principal bundles, we obtain a transformation of classical connections that…

These notes survey the theory of (twisted) conformal blocks from an algebro-geometric perspective and have two main goals. The first one is to summarize the construction of conformal blocks from vertex operator algebras, and to describe…
