Stream: Is there code for X?

Is there code for the bijection between principal G-bundles and homotopy classes of maps to BG?

Michael Rothgang (Dec 14 2025 at 16:31):

Did you try searching for this yourself? What was the outcome of your attempts?

Junyan Xu (Dec 14 2025 at 16:51):

How do we define BG in mathlib? Probably this?

Dominic Steinitz (Dec 14 2025 at 17:04):

I didn't think we had a definition of a principal G-bundle?

Junyan Xu (Dec 14 2025 at 17:11):

If G is discrete then we are about to have it: https://github.com/leanprover-community/mathlib4/pull/7596/files#r2616225613
The definition is close to this MO answer.

But you're (loosely) working on this, right?
