In this work we deal with actions of vector groupoid which is a new concept in the literature‎. ‎After we give the definition of the action of a vector groupoid on a vector space‎, ‎we obtain some results related to actions of vector groupoids‎. ‎We also apply some characterizations of the category and groupoid theory to vector groupoids‎. ‎As the second part of the work‎, ‎we define the notion...

In this article we explore a non-abelian torsion theory in the category of preordered groups: objects its torsion-free subcategory are partially ordered groups, whereas groups (with total order). The reflector from to has stable units, and prove that it induces monotone-light factorization system. We describe coverings relative Galois structure naturally associated with reflector, explain how t...

We propose a notion of groupoid homotopy for generalized maps. This notion of groupoid homotopy generalizes the notions of natural transformation and strict homotopy for functors. The groupoid homotopy type of a Lie groupoid is shown to be invariant under Morita equivalence. As an application we consider orbifolds as groupoids and study the orbifold homotopy between orbifold maps induced by the...

The aim of this paper is to show one more facet of the role of crossed complexes as generalisations of both groups (or groupoids) and of chain complexes. We do this by defining and establishing the main properties of a classifying space functor B: mia -> SToft from the category of crossed complexes to the category of spaces. The basic example of a crossed complex is the fundamental crossed comp...

This paper introduces a generalization of Pontryagin duality for locally compact Hausdorff abelian groups to locally compact Hausdorff abelian group bundles. First recall that a group bundle is just a groupoid where the range and source maps coincide. An abelian group bundle is a bundle where each fibre is an abelian group. When working with a group bundle G we will use X to denote the unit spa...

The notion of Cayley color graphs of groups is generalized to inverse semigroups and groupoids. The set of partial automorphisms of the Cayley color graph of an inverse semigroup or a groupoid is isomorphic to the original inverse semigroup or groupoid. The groupoid of color permuting partial automorphisms of the Cayley color graph of a transitive groupoid is isomorphic to the original groupoid.

In this paper, we introduce the notion of a logistic groupoid on the real numbers R, and show that, given a groupoid (R, ?) with some conditions, there exists a groupoid (X, ~) such that (R, ?) is the logistic groupoid of (X, ~).

Abstract Twisted étale groupoid algebras have recently been studied in the algebraic setting by several authors connection with an abstract theory of Cartan pairs rings. In this paper we show that extensions ample groupoids correspond a precise manner to Boolean inverse semigroups. particular, discrete twists over certain abelian semigroups, and they are classified Lausch’s second cohomology gr...

Motivated by the computations done in [9], where I introduced and discussed what I called the groupoid of generalized gauge transformations, viewed as a groupoid over the objects of the category BunG,M of principal G-bundles over a given manifold M , I develop in this paper the same ideas for the more general case of principal G-bundles or principal bundles with structure groupoid G, where now ...
