Plongement d'un groupoïde médian dans le groupoïde multiplicatif d'un semi-anneau médian
We clarify in which precise sense the theory of principal bundles and the theory of groupoids are equivalent; and how this equivalence of theories, in the differentiable case, reflects itself in the theory of connections. The method used is that of synthetic differential geometry.
This article establishes the algebraic covering theory of quandles. For every connected quandle Q with base point q ∈ Q, we explicitly construct a universal covering p: (Q̃,q̃̃) → (Q,q). This in turn leads us to define the algebraic fundamental group , where Adj(Q) is the adjoint group of Q. We then establish the Galois correspondence between connected coverings of (Q,q) and subgroups of π₁(Q,q). Quandle coverings are thus formally analogous to coverings of topological spaces, and resemble Kervaire’s...
The paper studies tolerances and congruences on anticommutative conservative groupoids. These groupoids can be assigned in a one-to-one way to undirected graphs.
