Symmetries and Higher-Form Connections in Derived Differential Geometry
Severin Bunk, Lukas Müller, Joost Nuiten +1
We introduce a general definition of higher-form connections on principal -bundles in differential geometry. This is achieved by developing the formal differentiation and i…
The Cauchy problem for gradient generalized Ricci solitons on a bundle gerbe
Severin Bunk, Miguel Pino Carmona, C. S. Shahbazi
We prove well-posedness of the analytic Cauchy problem for gradient generalized Ricci solitons on an abelian bundle gerbe and solve the initial data equations on every compact Riem…
The local moduli space of the Einstein-Yang-Mills system
Severin Bunk, Vicente Muñoz, C. S. Shahbazi
We study the deformation theory of the Einstein-Yang-Mills system on a principal bundle with a compact structure group over a compact manifold. We first construct, as an applicatio…
Higher Geometric Structures on Manifolds and the Gauge Theory of Deligne Cohomology
Severin Bunk, C. S. Shahbazi
We study smooth higher symmetry groups and moduli -stacks of generic higher geometric structures on manifolds. Symmetries are automorphisms which cover non-trivial diffeomo…
Gerbes in Geometry, Field Theory, and Quantisation
Severin Bunk
This is a mostly self-contained survey article about bundle gerbes and some of their recent applications in geometry, field theory, and quantisation. We cover the definition of bun…
Smooth 2-Group Extensions and Symmetries of Bundle Gerbes
Severin Bunk, Lukas Müller, Richard J. Szabo
We study bundle gerbes on manifolds that carry an action of a connected Lie group . We show that these data give rise to a smooth 2-group extension of by the smooth 2-gr…
