A equivalence relation, preserving the Chern-Weil form, is defined between connections on a complex vector bundle. Bundles equipped with such an equivalence class are called Structured Bundles, and their isomorphism classes form an abelian…

Following the theory of principal $\infty$-bundles of Niklaus-Schreiber-Steveson, we develop a homotopy categorification of Hopf algebras, which model quantum groups. We study their higher-representation theory in the setting of…

In this paper we look at Grothendieck's work on classifying holomorphic bundles over the complex projective line. The paper is divided into $4$ parts. The first and second part we build up the necessary background to talk about vector…

This thesis contains various results on unitary 2-representations of finite groups and their 2-characters, as well as on pivotal structures for fusion categories. The motivation is extended topological quantum field theory (TQFT), where the…

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…

Classically, the splitting principle says how to pull back a vector bundle in such a way that it splits into line bundles and the pullback map induces an injection on $K$-theory. Here we categorify the splitting principle and generalize it…

We study vector bundles over Lie groupoids, known as VB-groupoids, and their induced geometric objects over differentiable stacks. We establish a fundamental theorem that characterizes VB-Morita maps in terms of fiber and basic data, and…

We exhaustively classify topological equivariant complex vector bundles over two-sphere under a compact Lie group (not necessarily effective) action. It is shown that inequivariant Chern classes and isotropy representations at (at most)…

We show that the complete bornological convolution algebras of Lie groupoids and convolution bimodules of groupoid bibundles define a monoidal functor from the 2-category of differentiable stacks to the Morita 2-category of complete…

We develop a general theory of (extended) inner autoequivalences of objects of any 2-category, generalizing the theory of isotropy groups to the 2-categorical setting. We show how dense subcategories let one compute isotropy in the presence…

In this paper, the 2-category $\mathfrak{Rep}_{{\bf 2Mat}_{\mathbb{C}}}(\mathbb{G})$ of (weak) representations of an arbitrary (weak) 2-group $\mathbb{G}$ on (some version of) Kapranov and Voevodsky's 2-category of (complex) 2-vector spaces…

The first goal of this survey paper is to argue that if orbifolds are groupoids, then the collection of orbifolds and their maps has to be thought of as a 2-category. Compare this with the classical definition of Satake and Thurston of…

We prove that the 2-category of action Lie groupoids localised in the following three different ways yield equivalent bicategories: localising at equivariant weak equivalences \`a la Pronk, localising using surjective submersive equivariant…

We characterize cyclic algebras over the associative and the framed little 2-disks operad in any symmetric monoidal bicategory. The cyclicity is appropriately treated in a coherent way, i.e. up to coherent isomorphism. When the symmetric…
