Nonabelian Bundle Gerbes, their Differential Geometry and Gauge Theory
read the original abstract
Bundle gerbes are a higher version of line bundles, we present nonabelian bundle gerbes as a higher version of principal bundles. Connection, curving, curvature and gauge transformations are studied both in a global coordinate independent formalism and in local coordinates. These are the gauge fields needed for the construction of Yang-Mills theories with 2-form gauge potential.

Adjusted connections on non-abelian bundle gerbes
The work constructs adjusted connections on non-abelian bundle gerbes classified by Saemann's adjusted non-abelian differential cohomology and provides a new coordinate-free version of Tellez-Dominguez' lifting theore...

Generalized forms of types N = 1, 2 and higher gauge theory
Strict 2- and 3-gauge theory is re-expressed in a single generalized-form formalism in which higher connections, curvatures, Bianchi identities, and gauge transformations match ordinary gauge-theory form, yielding uni...

Discrete $p$-Form Symmetry and Higher Coulomb Phases
Field theories with ℤ_N p-form symmetry generically admit a Coulomb phase where the infrared theory is Abelian p-form electrodynamics, illustrated via continuum and lattice examples.

A toy model for $p$-form gauge symmetry
The paper introduces a matrix toy model that inherits p-form gauge symmetry from the functional space of p-brane configurations via symmetric trace after replacing the infinite-dimensional space with finite matrices.
