Inverse limits of locally convex Lie groupoids
Abstract
We study strict inverse systems of locally convex Lie groupoids and Lie algebroids. We show that strict inverse limits of Lie algebroids and Lie groupoids inherit natural Lie structures and establish a natural isomorphism of functors $\varprojlim\circ\operatorname{Lie}\cong\operatorname{Lie}\circ\varprojlim$. We then consider inverse systems of integrable Banach-Lie algebroids and their source-simply connected levelwise integrations. We give conditions under which these integrations form a strict inverse system of Lie groupoids and hence their inverse limit integrates the inverse-limit algebroid. Under additional hypotheses on the source-fiber inverse sequence, we describe the obstruction to source-simply connectedness of the resulting integration in terms of the derived inverse limit $\varprojlim^{1}π_2$ of the second homotopy groups of the source fibers. We illustrate the theory with several examples: inverse limits of jet groupoids, current groupoids, and gauge groupoids, including the corresponding inverse-limit Atiyah algebroids and a source-simply connected inverse-limit integration arising from the quaternionic Hopf bundle.
