Higher bundles are homotopy coherent generalisations of classical fibre bundles. They appear in numerous contexts in geometry, topology and physics. In particular, higher principal bundles provide the geometric framework for higher-group…
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…
We give a new construction of the holonomy groupoid of a regular foliation in terms of a partial connection on a diffeological principal bundle of germs of transverse parametrisations. We extend these ideas to construct a novel holonomy…
The aim of this paper is to review and discuss in detail local aspects of principal bundles with groupoid structure. Many results, in particular from the second and third section, are already known to some extents, but, due to the lack of a…
A review of the characterization of principal bundles, through the different properties of the action of a group and its related canonical and translation maps, is presented. The work is divided in three stages: a topological group acting…
Let $X$ be an irreducible smooth complex projective variety. Let $G$ be a linear algebraic group over $\mathbb{C}$. We define the notion of Lie algebroid valued connection on holomorphic principal $G$--bundles on $X$, and study their basic…
In this note, we introduce the notion of a singular principal G-bundle, associated to a reductive algebraic group G over the complex numbers by means of a faithful representation $\varrho^\p\colon G\lra \SL(V)$. This concept is meant to…
We introduce the notion of \textbf{Q}-principal bundle, which is the appropriate version of principal fibre bundles in the setting of R. Barre's \textbf{Q}-manifolds. As an application, we prove that every transitive Lie algebroid arises…
We make the category BGrb_M of bundle gerbes on a manifold M into a 2-category by providing 2-cells in the form of transformations of bundle gerbe morphisms. This description of BGrb_M as a 2-category is used to define the notion of a…
A noncommutative-geometric formalism of framed principal bundles is sketched, in a special case of quantum bundles (over quantum spaces) possessing classical structure groups. Quantum counterparts of torsion operators and Levi-Civita type…
Let $G$ be a reductive algebraic group. A toric principal $G$-bundle is a principal $G$-bundle over a toric variety together with a torus action commuting with the $G$-action. Extending the Klyachko classification of toric vector bundles,…
In this paper, a notion of a principal $2$-bundle over a Lie groupoid has been introduced. For such principal $2$-bundles, we produced a short exact sequence of VB-groupoids, namely, the Atiyah sequence. Two notions of connection structures…
In this paper we describe a classifying theory for families of simplicial topological groups. If $B$ is a topological space and $G$ is a simplicial topological group, then we can consider the non-abelian cohomology $H(B,G)$ of $B$ with…
In this paper it is shown that the structure of the configuration space of any continua is what is called in differential geometry a {\it principle bundle} \cite{Frankel2011ThePhysics}. A principal bundle is a structure in which all points…
We define the pull-back of a smooth principal fibre bundle, and show that it has a natural principal fibre bundle structure. Next, we analyse the relationship between pull-backs by homotopy equivalent maps. The main result of this article…
We introduce a new construction, the isotropy groupoid, to organize the orbit data for split $\Gamma$-spaces. We show that equivariant principal $G$-bundles over split $\Gamma$-CW complexes $X$ can be effectively classified by means of…
Usually bundle gerbes are considered as objects of a 2-groupoid, whose 1-morphisms, called stable isomorphisms, are all invertible. I introduce new 1-morphisms which include stable isomorphisms, trivializations and bundle gerbe modules.…
We show that principal bundles for a semisimple group on an arbitrary affine curve over an algebraically closed field are trivial, provided the order of $\pi_1$ of the group is invertible in the ground field, or if the curve has semi-normal…
Graded bundles are a class of graded manifolds which represent a natural generalisation of vector bundles and include the higher order tangent bundles as canonical examples. We present and study the concept of the linearisation of graded…
We provide a general, homotopy-theoretic definition of string group models within an $\infty$-category of smooth spaces, and we present new smooth models for the string group. Here, a smooth space is a presheaf of $\infty$-groupoids on the…
