Vector bundles on Orbispaces
نویسنده
چکیده
Orbispaces are spaces with extra structure. The main examples come from compact Lie group actionsX G and are denoted [X/G], their underlying space being X/G. By definition, every orbispace is locally of the form [X/G], but the group G might vary. To be more precise, an orbispace is a topological stack which is locally equivalent to [X/G] for G a Lie group and X a G-CW-complex [2] [4] [5]. However, if all the stabilizer groups are finite, there exists a more concrete alternative definition [1].

-duality for Non-free Circle Actions Ulrich Bunke and Thomas Schick Dedicated to Krzysztof Wojciechowski on His 50th Birthday
1.1.1. The concept of T -duality has its origin in string theory. Very roughly speaking, it relates one type of string theory on some target space with another type of string theory on a T -dual target space. Some topological aspects of T -duality in the presence of H-fields were studied in Bunke and Schick [2] (following earlier work by Bouwknegt, Mathai and Evslin [1], and others). In those p...
متن کاملOn the deformation quantization of symplectic orbispaces
In the first part of this article we provide a geometrically oriented approach to the theory of orbispaces which originally had been introduced by Chen. We explain the notion of a vector orbibundle and characterize the good sections of a reduced vector orbibundle as the smooth stratified sections. In the second part of the article we elaborate on the quantizability of a symplectic orbispace. By...
متن کاملOrbispaces and Orbifolds from the Point of View of the Borel Construction, a New Definition
“An orbifold is a space which is locally modeled on the quotient of a vector space by a finite group.” This sentence is so easily said or written that more than one person has missed some of the subtleties hidden by orbifolds. Orbifolds were first introduced by Satake under the name “V-manifold” (cf [7] and [8]) and rediscovered by Thurston who called them “orbifolds” (cf [9]). Both of them use...

متن کاملDifferentiation along Multivector Fields
The Lie derivation of multivector fields along multivector fields has been introduced by Schouten (see cite{Sc, S}), and studdied for example in cite{M} and cite{I}. In the present paper we define the Lie derivation of differential forms along multivector fields, and we extend this concept to covariant derivation on tangent bundles and vector bundles, and find natural relations between them and...
