Topological Higher Gauge Theory - from BF to BFCG theory
F. Girelli, H. Pfeiffer, E. M. Popescu
We study generalizations of 3- and 4-dimensional BF-theory in the context of higher gauge theory. First, we construct topological higher gauge theories as discrete state sum models…

Higher gauge theory -- differential versus integral formulation
Florian Girelli, Hendryk Pfeiffer
The term higher gauge theory refers to the generalization of gauge theory to a theory of connections at two levels, essentially given by 1- and 2-forms. So far, there have been two…
