Recently there has been much effort in developing a quantum generalisation of reference frame transformations. Despite important progress, a complete understanding of their principles is still lacking. In particular, we argue that previous…
We define locally trivial quantum vector bundles (QVB) and QVB associated to locally trivial quantum principal fibre bundles. There exists a differential structure on the associated vector bundle coming from the differential structure on…
We outline how Drinfeld twist deformation techniques can be applied to the deformation quantization of principal bundles into noncommutative principal bundles, and more in general to the deformation of Hopf-Galois extensions. First we twist…
A question raised by Freedman & Hastings (2023) still stands: To produce a mathematical theory that would unify quantum entanglement/tensor-structure with parameterized/bundle-structure via their amalgamation (a hypothetical pushout) along…
We present in the most natural way, that is, in the context of the theory of vector and principal bundles and connections in them, fundamental geometrical concepts related to General Relativity and one of its extensions, the Einstein-Cartan…
We generalize the results of a previous paper of ours to compact Lie groups. Using a recently developed ordinary equivariant homology and cohomology, we define equivariant Poincare complexes with the properties that (1) every compact…
We introduce a notion of I-factorial quantum torsor, which consists of an integrable ergodic action of a locally compact quantum group on a type I-factor such that also the crossed product is a type I-factor. We show that any such…
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 establish an upper bound for the cochain type level of the total space of a pull-back fibration. It explains to us why the numerical invariant for a principal bundle over the sphere are less than or equal to two. Moreover computational…
Simplicial objects $\mathsf{sC}$ in descent categories $\mathsf{C}$, as introduced by Behrend and Getzler, provide a context in which to study higher stacks. In this note, we extend the construction of the canonical cocycle of a smooth…
We show that isomorphism classes $[\mathcal{A}]$ of flat $q\times q$ matrix bundles $\mathcal{A}$ (or projectively flat rank-$q$ complex vector bundles $\mathcal{E}$) on a pro-torus $\mathbb{T}$ are in bijective correspondence with the…
We define the local-triviality dimension for actions of compact quantum groups on unital C*-algebras. The resulting compact quantum principal bundle is said to be locally trivial when this dimension is finite. For commutative C*-algebras,…
We develop the concept of a double (more generally n-tuple) principal bundle departing from a compatibility condition for a principal action of a Lie group on a groupoid.
Motivated by the computations done in \cite{C1}, where I introduced and discussed what I called the groupoid of generalized gauge transformations, viewed as a groupoid over the objects of the category $\mathsf{Bun}_{G,M}$ of principal…
The quantum Lefschetz formula explains how virtual fundamental classes (or structure sheaves) of moduli stacks of stable maps behave when passing from an ambient target scheme to the zero locus of a section. It is only valid under special…
Consider the diagonal action of the special orthogonal group on the direct sum of a finite number of copies of the standard representation--the underlying field is assumed to be algebraically closed and of characteristic not equal to two.…
Starting categorically, we give simple and precise models of equivariant classifying spaces. We need these models for work in progress in equivariant infinite loop space theory and equivariant algebraic K-theory, but the models are of…
A Q-manifold is a graded manifold endowed with a vector field of degree one squaring to zero. We consider the notion of a Q-bundle, that is, a fiber bundle in the category of Q-manifolds. To each homotopy class of ``gauge fields'' (sections…
The natural generalization of the notion of bundle in quantum geometry is that of bimodule. If the base space has quantum group symmetries one is particularly interested in bimodules covariant (equivariant) under these symmetries. Most…
Quantum homogeneous vector bundles are introduced by a direct description of their sections in the context of Woronowicz type compact quantum groups. The bundles carry natural topologies inherited from the quantum groups, and their sections…
