Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve over an algebraically closed field $k$. Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a parahoric group scheme on $X$ as in \cite{pr}. Via the principle of Hecke correspondences, we set-up relationships between the cohomology of…

We compute the connective differential $K$-theory and the differential cohomology of the moduli stack of principal $G$-bundles with connection. The results are formulated in terms of invariant polynomials and the representation ring of $G$.…

The equivalence of principal bundles with transitive Lie groupoids due to Ehresmann is a well known result. A remarkable generalisation of this equivalence, due to Mackenzie, is the equivalence of principal bundle extensions with those…

We define the Chern map from the Grothendieck group of a linear category C to the de Rham cohomology of C with coefficients in a DG-category. In order to achieve our goal, we define the notion of connection on a C-module, and we show that…

A strong version of the quantization conjecture of Guillemin and Sternberg is proved. For a reductive group action on a smooth, compact, polarized variety (X,L), the cohomologies of L over the GIT quotient X // G equal the invariant part of…

In this paper we define complex equivariant K-theory for actions of Lie groupoids using finite-dimensional vector bundles. For a Bredon-compatible Lie groupoid, this defines a periodic cohomology theory on the category of finite equivariant…

For a finite dimensional vector space V of dimension n, we consider the incidence correspondence (or partial flag variety) X in P(V) x P(V*), parametrizing pairs consisting of a point and a hyperplane containing it. We completely…

We introduce a general definition of higher-form connections on principal $\infty$-bundles in differential geometry. This is achieved by developing the formal differentiation and integration of maps from smooth manifolds to derived stacks…

We develop a Chern-Weil theory for compact Lie group action whose generic stabilizers are finite in the framework of equivariant cohomology. This provides a method of changing an equivariant closed form within its cohomological class to a…

We observe that any regular Lie groupoid G over an manifold M fits into an extension $K \to G \to E$ of a foliation groupoid E by a bundle of connected Lie groups K. If $\FF$ is the foliation on M given by the orbits of E and T is a…

We present a novel generalisation of principal bundles -- principaloid bundles: These are fibre bundles $\pi:P\to B$ where the typical fibre is the arrow manifold $G$ of a Lie groupoid $G\rightrightarrows M$ and the structure group is…

We study the de Rham 1-cohomology H^1_{DR}(M,G) of a smooth manifold M with values in a Lie group G. By definition, this is the quotient of the set of flat connections in the trivial principle bundle $M\times G$ by the so-called gauge…

In this paper we extend the Chern-Weil-Lecomte characteristic map to the setting of $L_{\infty}$-algebras. In this general framework, characteristic classes of $L_{\infty}$-algebra extensions are defined by means of the Chern-Weil-Lecomte…

Given a complex manifold $M$ equipped with a holomorphic action of a connected complex Lie group $G$, and a holomorphic principal $H$--bundle $E_H$ over $X$ equipped with a $G$--connection $h$, we investigate the connections on the…

Let $X$ be a normal projective variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Let $D$ be a reduced Weil divisor on $X$. Let $G$ be a reductive linear algebraic group. We introduce the notion of a logarithmic connection…

Using tools from the theory of Lie groupoids, we study the category of logarithmic flat connections on principal $G$-bundles, where $G$ is a complex reductive structure group. Flat connections on the affine line with a logarithmic…

In this work, generalized principal bundles modelled by Lie group bundle actions are investigated. In particular, the definition of equivariant connections in these bundles, associated to Lie group bundle connections, is provided, together…

Over a smooth and proper complex scheme, the differential Galois group of an integrable connection may be obtained as the closure of the transcendental monodromy representation. In this paper, we employ a completely algebraic variation of…

In this paper we show how connections and their generalizations on transitive Lie algebroids are related to the notion of connections in the framework of the derivation-based noncommutative geometry. In order to compare the two…
