In this book we prove unified classification results for equivariant principal bundles when the topological structure group is truncated. The conceptually transparent proof invokes a smooth Oka principle, which becomes available after faithfully embedding traditional equivariant topology into the singular-cohesive homotopy theory of globally equivariant higher smooth stacks. This works for discrete equivariance groups acting properly on smooth manifolds with resolvable singularities, whence we are equivalently describing principal bundles on good orbifolds. In preparation, we re-develop the theory of equivariant principal bundles from scratch by systematic use of Grothendieck's internalization method. In particular we prove that all equivariant local triviality conditions considered in the literature are implied by regarding G-equivariant principal bundles as principal bundles internal to the BG-slice of the ambient cohesive infinity-topos. Generally we find that the characteristic subtle phenomena of equivariant classifying theory all reflect basic "modal" properties of singular-cohesive homotopy theory. Classical literature has mostly been concerned with compact Lie structure groups. Where these are truncated, our classification recovers and generalizes results of Lashof, May, Segal and Rezk. A key non-classical example is the infinite projective unitary structure group, in which case we are classifying degree-3 twists of equivariant KU-theory, recovering results of Atiyah, Segal, Lueck and Uribe. Our theorem enhances this to conjugation-equivariance, where we are classifying the geometric twists of equivariant KR-theory, restricting on "O-planes" to the geometric twists of KO-theory. This is the generality in which equivariant K-theory twists model quantum symmetries of topological phases and the B-field in string theory on orbi-orientifolds.

Super-$\mathrm{Lie}_\infty$ T-Duality and M-Theory
The M-algebra is shown to be the brane-charge completion of the fully T-doubled super-spacetime, with the Poincaré super 2-form of T-duality lifted to a Poincaré super 3-form.

Anyons on M5-Probes of Seifert 3-Orbifolds via Flux Quantization
Choosing equivariant twistorial Cohomotopy as the flux quantization law on single M5-probes wrapped on a Z2-orbifold yields abelian anyonic quantum states on the orbifold fixed locus.
