Differential cohomology in a cohesive infinity-topos

U Schreiber - arXiv preprint arXiv:1310.7930, 2013 - arxiv.org
We formulate differential cohomology and Chern-Weil theory--the theory of connections on
fiber bundles and of gauge fields--abstractly in the context of a certain class of higher …

Proper orbifold cohomology

H Sati, U Schreiber - arXiv preprint arXiv:2008.01101, 2020 - arxiv.org
The concept of orbifolds should unify differential geometry with equivariant homotopy theory,
so that orbifold cohomology should unify differential cohomology with proper equivariant …

Derived manifolds as differential graded manifolds

D Carchedi - arXiv preprint arXiv:2303.11140, 2023 - arxiv.org
On one hand, together with Pelle Steffens, we recently characterized the infinity category of
derived manifolds up to equivalence by a universal property. On the other hand, it is shown …

Derived -Geometry I: Foundations

P Steffens - arXiv preprint arXiv:2304.08671, 2023 - arxiv.org
This work is the first in a series laying the foundations of derived geometry in the $ C^{\infty}
$ setting, and providing tools for the construction and study of moduli spaces of solutions of …

[图书][B] Algebraic geometry over C∞-rings

D Joyce - 2019 - books.google.com
If X is a manifold then the R-algebra C∞(X) of smooth functions c: X→ R is a C∞-ring. That
is, for each smooth function f: Rn→ R there is an n-fold operation Φf: C∞(X) n→ C∞(X) …

Graded Geometry, Q‐Manifolds, and Microformal Geometry: LMS/EPSRC Durham Symposium on Higher Structures in M‐Theory

TT Voronov - Fortschritte der Physik, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
We give an exposition of graded and microformal geometry, and the language of Q‐
manifolds. Q‐manifolds are supermanifolds endowed with an odd vector field of square …

Derived differentiable manifolds

K Behrend, HY Liao, P Xu - arXiv preprint arXiv:2006.01376, 2020 - arxiv.org
We develop the theory of derived differential geometry in terms of bundles of curved $
L_\infty [1] $-algebras, ie dg manifolds of positive amplitudes. We prove the category of …

Commuting cohesions

DJ Myers, M Riley - arXiv preprint arXiv:2301.13780, 2023 - arxiv.org
Shulman's spatial type theory internalizes the modalities of Lawvere's axiomatic cohesion in
a homotopy type theory, enabling many of the constructions from Schreiber's modal …

Differential graded manifolds of finite positive amplitude

K Behrend, HY Liao, P Xu - International Mathematics Research …, 2024 - academic.oup.com
We prove that dg manifolds of finite positive amplitude, that is, bundles of positively graded
curved-algebras, form a category of fibrant objects. As a main step in the proof, we obtain a …

Higher Structures in M‐Theory: LMS/EPSRC Durham Symposium on Higher Structures in M‐Theory

B Jurčo, C Sämann, U Schreiber… - Fortschritte der Physik, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
The key open problem of string theory remains its non‐perturbative completion to M‐theory.
A decisive hint to its inner workings comes from numerous appearances of higher structures …
