并行传输和函子

Parallel Transport and Functors

Urs Schreiber, Konrad Waldorf

摘要:

光滑纤维丛中的联络的平行输运产生一个函子,它从基流形的路径广群到描述丛的纤维的范畴。我们通过引入两个概念来描述这样获得的函子:局部平凡化和光滑下降数据。这提供了一种用函子范畴代替光滑纤维丛范畴的方法。我们表明,这一概念可以推广到范畴化束的连接,以及如何提高这种推广的理解高维并行运输。

英文摘要:

Parallel transport of a connection in a smooth fibre bundle yields a functor from the path groupoid of the base manifold into a category that describes the fibres of the bundle. We characterize functors obtained like this by two notions we introduce: local trivializations and smooth descent data. This provides a way to substitute categories of functors for categories of smooth fibre bundles with connection. We indicate that this concept can be generalized to connections in categorified bundles, and how this generalization improves the understanding of higher dimensional parallel transport.
