In this paper, we consider noncommutative superspace in relation with super Heisenberg group. We construct a matrix representation of super Heisenberg group and apply this to the two-dimensional deformed N=(2,2) superspace that appeared in…

In this article we construct and discuss several aspects of the two-component spinorial formalism for six-dimensional spacetimes, in which chiral spinors are represented by objects with two quaternionic components and the spin group is…

Given a representation up to homotopy of a Lie algebroid on a 2-term complex of vector bundles, we define the corresponding holonomy as a strict 2-functor from a Weinstein path 2-groupoid to the gauge 2-groupoid of the underlying 2-term…

For a weak 2-group, we construct a bicategory of flat 2-group bundles over differentiable stacks as a localization of a functor bicategory. This description is amenable to explicit geometric constructions. For example, we show that flat…

We construct a theory of 2-vector bundles over a Lie groupoid, with fibers modeled by the bicategory of super algebras, bimodules and intertwiners. We demonstrate that these 2-vector bundles form a symmetric monoidal 2-stack. From this…

In the context of non-commutative geometries, we develop a group Fourier transform for the Lie group SU(2). Our method is based on the Schwinger representation of the Lie algebra su(2) in terms of spinors. It allows us to prove that the…

The loop space of a string manifold supports an infinite-dimensional Fock space bundle, which is an analog of the spinor bundle on a spin manifold. This spinor bundle on loop space appears in the description of 2-dimensional sigma models as…

We study 2-representations, i.e., actions of 2-groups on 2-vector spaces. Our main focus is character theory for 2-representations. To this end we employ the technique of extended Burnside rings. Our main theorem is that the Ganter-Kapranov…

We associate to a 2-vector bundle over an essentially finite groupoid a 2-vector space of parallel sections, or, in representation theoretic terms, of higher invariants, which can be described as homotopy fixed points. Our main result is…

In math.RT/0302174 we developed a framework to study representations of groups of the form $G((t))$, where $G$ is an algebraic group over a local field $K$. The main feature of this theory is that natural representations of groups of this…

We prove that the theory of representations of a finite 2-group $\mathbb{G}$ in Baez-Crans 2-vector spaces over a field $k$ of characteristic zero essentially reduces to the theory of $k$-linear representations of the group of isomorphism…

Motivated by topological quantum field theory, we investigate the geometric aspects of unitary 2-representations of finite groups on 2-Hilbert spaces, and their 2-characters. We show how the basic ideas of geometric quantization are…

A 2-group is a "categorified" version of a group, in which the underlying set G has been replaced by a category and the multiplication map has been replaced by a functor. Various versions of this notion have already been explored; our goal…
