Geometric structures on Lie groupoids and differentiable stacks
Abstract
In this PhD thesis, we have studied certain geometric structures over Lie groupoids and differentiable stacks. This thesis is based on the work [arXiv:2103.04560, arXiv:2012.08447, arXiv:2012.08442, arXiv:1907.00375]. In [arXiv:1907.00375], we have discussed the correspondence between two notions of a gerbe over a stack. In [arXiv:2012.08447], we have developed the notion of Chern-Weil map for principal bundles over a Lie groupoid when the Lie groupoid is equipped with a connection. In [arXiv:2012.08442], we discuss the notion of connection on the principal bundle over a Deligne Mumford stack using the notion of Atiyah sequence. The work in [arXiv:2103.04560] introduces the notion of a topological groupoid extension and discusses the correspondence between (Morita equivalent classes of) topological groupoid extensions and gerbes over topological stacks.
