We introduce a new construction, the isotropy groupoid, to organize the orbit data for split Γ-spaces. We show that equivariant principal G-bundles over split Γ-CW complexes X can be effectively classified by means of representations of their isotropy groupoids. For instance, if the quotient complex A = Γ\X is a graph, with all edge stabilizers toral subgroups of Γ, we obtain a purely combinato...

Starting with some motivating examples (classsical atlases for a manifold, space of leaves of a foliation, group orbits), we propose to view a Lie groupoid as a generalized atlas for the “virtual structure” of its orbit space, the equivalence between atlases being here the smooth Morita equivalence. This “structure” keeps memory of the isotropy groups and of the smoothness as well. To take the ...

The notion of travel groupoids was introduced by L. Nebeský in 2006 in connection with a study on geodetic graphs. A travel groupoid is a pair of a set V and a binary operation ∗ on V satisfying two axioms. For a travel groupoid, we can associate a graph. We say that a graph G has a travel groupoid if the graph associated with the travel groupoid is equal to G. Nebeský gave a characterization f...

A symplectic groupoid G. := (G1 ⇉ G0) determines a Poisson structure on G0. In this case, we call G. a symplectic groupoid of the Poisson manifold G0. However, not every Poisson manifold M has such a symplectic groupoid. This keeps us away from some desirable goals: for example, establishing Morita equivalence in the category of all Poisson manifolds. In this paper, we construct symplectic Wein...

The line digraph of the Cayley color graph of a transitive groupoid can be colored so that the groupoid of partial automorphisms is isomorphic to a semidirect product of the original groupoid.

We present a number of findings concerning groupoid dynamical systems and groupoid crossed products. The primary result is an identification of the spectrum of the groupoid crossed product when the groupoid has continuously varying abelian stabilizers and a well behaved orbit space. In this case, the spectrum of the crossed product is homeomorphic, via an induction map, to a quotient of the spe...

The notion of a fuzzy upper bound over a groupoid is introduced and some properties of it are investigated. We also define the notions of an either-or subset of a groupoid and a strong either-or subset of a groupoid and study some of their related properties. In particular, we consider fuzzy upper bounds in Bin(X), where Bin(X) is the collection of all groupoids. Finally, we define a fuzzy-d-su...
