OverviewHigh Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! In mathematics, a bundle gerbe is a geometrical model of certain 1-gerbes with connection, or equivalently of a 2-class in Deligne cohomology. U(1)-principal bundles over a space M (see circle bundle) are geometrical realizations of 1-classes in Deligne cohomology which consist of 1-form connections) and 2-form curvatures. The topology of a U(1) bundle is classified by its Chern class, which is an element of H2(M), the second integral cohomology of M. Gerbes, or more precisely 1-gerbes, are abstract descriptions of Deligne 2-classes, which each define an element of H3(M), the third integral cohomology of M. Full Product DetailsAuthor: Lambert M.
