Theories of Bundles with Additional Homotopy Conditions
نویسنده
چکیده
In the present paper we study bundles equipped with extra homotopy conditions, in particular so-called n-bundles. It is shown that (under some condition) the classifying space of 1-bundles is the double coset space of some finite dimensional Lie group. We also establish some relation between our bundles and C*-algebras.

Formal Homotopy Quantum Field Theories, II : Simplicial Formal Maps
Simplicial formal maps were introduced in the first paper of this series as a tool for studying Homotopy Quantum Field Theories with background a general homotopy 2-type. Here we continue their study, showing how a natural generalisation can handle much more general backgrounds. The question of the geometric interpretation of these formal maps is partially answered in terms of combinatorial bun...
متن کاملSOME EXAMPLES OF SPHERE BUNDLES OVER SPHERES WHICH ARE LOOP SPACES mod/? BY JOHN EWING
In this note we give sufficient conditions that certain sphere bundles over spheres, denoted Bn(p), are of the homotopy type of loop spaces mod/? for p an odd prime. The method is to construct a classifying space for the /?-profinite completion of Bn(p) by collapsing an Eilenberg-Mac Lane space by the action of a certain finite group. We say that a space X has some property mod/? if the localiz...
متن کاملGeneralisations and applications of block bundles
We wish to obtain information about BP̃LF ; in fact we can study BGF (which is purely homotopy theoretic) and the fibre GF /P̃LF of χ. In Chapter III we construct a map θ : GF /P̃LF−−→(G/PL) , where G/PL is the space studied in Sullivan’s thesis under the name F/PL, and (G/PL) is the space of all unbased maps from F to G/PL. Theorems 5,6 show that, under suitable conditions, θ is almost a homotopy...
متن کاملGeometric cobordism categories
In this paper we study cobordism categories consisting of manifolds which are endowed with geometric structure. Examples of such geometric structures include symplectic structures, flat connections on principal bundles, and complex structures along with a holomorphic map to a target complex manifold. A general notion of “geometric structure” is defined using sheaf theoretic constructions. Our m...
متن کاملComments on the Gribov Ambiguity
We discuss the existence of Gribov ambiguities in SU(m)×U(1) gauge theories over the n−spheres. We achieve our goal by showing that there is exactly one conjugacy class of groups of gauge transformations for the theories given above. This implies that these transformation groups are conjugate to the ones of the trivial SU(m)×U(1) fiber bundles over the n−spheres. By using properties of the spac...
