Let $mathbb{X}=[X_1rightrightarrows X_0]$ be a Lie groupoid equipped with a connection, given by a smooth distribution $mathcal{H} subset T X_1$ transversal to the fibers of the source map. Under the assumption that the distribution $mathcal{H}$ is integrable, we define a version of de Rham cohomology for the pair $(mathbb{X}, mathcal{H})$, and we study connections on principal $G$-bundles over $(mathbb{X}, mathcal{H})$ in terms of the associated Atiyah sequence of vector bundles. We also discuss associated constructions for differentiable stacks. Finally, we develop the corresponding Chern-Weil theory and describe characteristic classes of principal $G$-bundles over a pair $(mathbb{X}, mathcal{H})$.
We construct and study general connections on Lie groupoids and differentiable stacks as well as on principal bundles over them using Atiyah sequences associated to transversal tangential distributions.
In this paper we introduce a notion of parallel transport for principal bundles with connections over differentiable stacks. We show that principal bundles with connections over stacks can be recovered from their parallel transport thereby extending
VB-groupoids are vector bundles in the category of Lie groupoids. They encompass several classical objects, including Lie group representations and 2-vector spaces. Moreover, they provide geometric pictures for 2-term representations up to homotopy o
We introduce and study (strict) Schottky G-bundles over a compact Riemann surface X, where G is a connected reductive algebraic group. Strict Schottky representations are shown to be related to branes in the moduli space of G-Higgs bundles over X, an
We investigate principal bundles over a root stack. In case of dimension one, we generalize the criterion of Weil and Atiyah for a principal bundle to have an algebraic connection.
