Differentiable Stacks and Gerbes
We introduce differentiable stacks and explain the relationship with Lie groupoids. Then we study S-bundles and S-gerbes over differentiable stacks. In particular, we establish the relationship between S-gerbes and groupoid S-central extensions. We define connections and curvings for groupoid S-central extensions extending the corresponding notions of Brylinski, Hitchin and Murray for S-gerbes ...
متن کاملAbelian and non-Abelian branes in WZW models and gerbes
We discuss how gerbes may be used to set up a consistent Lagrangian approach to the WZW models with boundary. The approach permits to study in detail possible boundary conditions that restrict the values of the fields on the worldsheet boundary to brane submanifolds in the target group. Such submanifolds are equipped with an additional geometric structure that is summarized in the notion of a g...
متن کاملGerbes and Abelian Motives
Assuming the Hodge conjecture for abelian varieties of CM-type, one obtains a good category of abelian motives over Fal p and a reduction functor to it from the category of CM-motives over Qal. Consequently, one obtains a morphism of gerbes of fibre functors with certain properties. We prove unconditionally that there exists a morphism of gerbes with these properties, and we classify them.
متن کاملS-Bundles and Gerbes over Differentiable Stacks
We study S-bundles and S-gerbes over differentiable stacks in terms of Lie groupoids, and construct Chern classes and Dixmier-Douady classes in terms of analogues of connections and curvature. c © 2001 Académie des sciences/Éditions scientifiques et médicales Elsevier SAS S-Fibrés et Gerbes sur des Champs Différentiables Résumé. On étudie les S-fibrés et les S-gerbes sur des champs différentiab...
متن کاملTopological Quantum Field Theory on Non-Abelian Gerbes
The infinitesimal symmetries of a fully decomposed non-Abelian gerbe can be generated in terms of a nilpotent BRST operator, which is here constructed. The appearing fields find a natural interpretation in terms of the universal gerbe, a generalisation of the universal bundle. We comment on the construction of observables in the arising Topological Quantum Field Theory. It is also shown how the...
