Differential cohomology in an oo-topos
Urs Schreiber
(UU)
Abstract: Differential cohomology describes connections on fiber bundles, and their generalization to concepts like gerbes with connection or differential K-theory. A good context for formalizing this turns out to be that of an oo-topos, such as that of oo-Lie groupoids. In the talk I'll try to indicate some of the central ideas and results.
