3 Coverings can be done with small categories [Bridson-Haefliger] in particular: k-graphs [Pask-Q-Raeburn]

6 Definition D p C surjective functor v D 0 = p 1 (x) vd = r 1 (v) p bijective Dv x xc Cx p
7 Induced homomorphisms GD fundamental groupoid p GC
8 Induced homomorphisms GD fundamental groupoid p GC π(d, v) p π(c, x) injective fundamental group
9 Induced homomorphisms Theorem Image of fundamental group classifies covering.
10 Induced homomorphisms Theorem Image of fundamental group classifies covering. More precisely, coverings (D, p) and (E, q) of C are isomorphic p π(d, v) and q π(e, u) are conjugate subgroups of π(c, x).
11 Regular coverings Definition Simplifying assumption (for this talk): p : D C regular covering, i.e., p π(d, v) normal in π(c, x) Definition deck transformations: G := π(c, x)/p π(d, v) acts freely on (D, p), transitively on fibres
12 Skew product Definition cocycle: c : C G functor (G group)
13 Skew product Definition cocycle: c : C G functor (G group) Definition skew product covering: C c G (λ,g) (x, c(λ)g) (y, g) C x y λ
14 Skew product Definition cocycle: c : C G functor (G group) Definition skew product covering: C c G (λ,g) (x, c(λ)g) (y, g) C x y λ Theorem G acts freely on C c G via (λ, g) h = (λ, gh) (C c G)/G = C
15 Regular coverings = Skew products Theorem (Gross-Tucker well... ) If a group G acts freely on a small category D, then: D/G is a category the quotient map D D/G is a covering there is a cocycle c : D/G G such that D = quotient map D/G (D/G) c G skew product covering
16 Special case Specialize to: path categories of directed graphs (can also do for k-graphs) E = (E 0, E 1, r, s) E 1 r s E 0 edges edges go from sources to ranges: r(e) path category: e vertices s(e) e v 1 e 0 v 1 2 e v 2 v n n 1 v n
17 Cocycles for graphs ( labelings ) c : E 1 G any function into a group
18 Cocycles for graphs ( labelings ) c : E 1 G any function into a group can promote to a cocycle c : E G (E = path category): c(e 1 e n ) = c(e 1 ) c(e n )
19 Cocycles for graphs ( labelings ) c : E 1 G any function into a group can promote to a cocycle c : E G (E = path category): c(e 1 e n ) = c(e 1 ) c(e n ) Theorem (Kaliszewski-Q-Raeburn) There is a coaction δ : C (E) C (E) C (G) such that C (E c G) = C (E) δ G
20 Cocycles for graphs ( labelings ) c : E 1 G any function into a group can promote to a cocycle c : E G (E = path category): c(e 1 e n ) = c(e 1 ) c(e n ) Theorem (Kaliszewski-Q-Raeburn) There is a coaction δ : C (E) C (E) C (G) such that C (E c G) = C (E) δ G In fact, the coaction is easy to find: δ(s e ) = s(e) c(e) (e E 1 ) where s e is a typical generating partial isometry of C (E).

27 Cocycle on topological graph c : E 1 G continuous (G locally compact group) Theorem (Deaconu-Kaliszewski-Q-Raeburn) There is a coaction δ : C (E) M(C (E) C (G)) such that C (E c G) = C (E) δ G

35 What about the covering theory? Question What about skew products and coverings?
36 What about the covering theory? Question What about skew products and coverings? Well, in the discrete case, the fibres of the covering were parameterized by the group G, so in the nondiscrete case, i.e., a cocycle from E into a locally compact group G, the projection map E c G E is certainly not a covering. Rather, it is a principal G-bundle.

The first part goes ok: Theorem (Deaconu-Kumjian-Q) If a locally compact group G acts freely and properly on a topological graph E, then the quotient E/G is a topological graph.

The first part goes ok: Theorem (Deaconu-Kumjian-Q) If a locally compact group G acts freely and properly on a topological graph E, then the quotient E/G is a topological graph. But then we would want E = (E/G) c G for some cocycle c : E 1 G. And this will in general not be the case, because the principal G-bundle E E/G might not be trivial.
