J.Monod 77, p. 13] his book is intended as a comprehensive introduction to the theory of T principalsheaves andtheirconnections inthesettingofAbstractDi?- ential Geometry (ADG), the latter being initiated by A.

Based on sheaf-theoretic methods and sheaf - homology, the presentGeometry of Principal Sheaves embodies the classical theory of connections on principal and vector bundles, and connections on vector sheaves,...

Many geometrical features of manifolds and fibre bundles modelled on Frechet spaces either cannot be defined or are difficult to handle directly. This is due to the inherent deficiencies of Frechet spaces; for example, the lack of a general solvability theory for differential equations, the non-existence of a reasonable Lie group structure on the general linear group of a Frechet space, and the non-existence of an exponential map in a Frechet Lie group. In this book, the authors describe in detail a new approach that overcomes many of these limitations by using projective limits of...
