Smooth relative connections on quiver bundles

Pavan Adroja, Sanjay Amrutiya, Riddhi Patil

Abstract

We develop a theory of smooth relative connections over the real path algebra $\mathbb{R}Q$ on smooth twisted quiver bundles. We give obstructions to the existence of a smooth relative connection on twisted quiver bundles. For tree-type quiver bundles, we establish a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a smooth relative connection. Additionally, we provide a framework for the representation theory of flat quiver bundles, relating the existence of flat relative connections to the underlying quiver representations.

Key Result

Proposition 3.7

Let $\mathcal{R}=(\mathcal{E}, \phi)$ be an $M$-twisted smooth $Q$-bundle. Then, $\mathcal{R}$ admits a smooth relative connection whose induced connections on $M_a$ are $\nabla_a$ for all $a\in Q_1$ if and only if the image of $\{\beta_a\}_{a\in Q_1}$ vanishes in $\mathrm{Ext}^1_{\mathcal{A}}(\math
