Abstract
For a class of affine algebraic groups over a field, we define the notions of -fundamental gerbe of a fibered category, generalizing what we had done in arXiv:1204.1260 for finite group schemes. We give sufficient conditions on implying that a fibered category over satisfying mild hypotheses admits a Nori -fundamental gerbe. We show that these are verified in particular by the classes of virtually abelian and virtually unipotent group schemes. In the second situation, under a properness condition on , we give a tannakian interpretation of the resulting gerbe.
