Group corings

We introduce group corings, and study functors between categories of comodules over group corings, and the relationship to graded modules over graded rings. Galois group corings are defined, and a Structure Theorem for the $G$-comodules over a Galois group coring is given. We study (graded) Morita contexts associated to a group coring. Our theory is applied to group corings associated to a comodule algebra over a Hopf group coalgebra.Comment: 38 page

Curved differential graded algebras and corings

A relationship between curved differential algebras and corings is established and explored. In particular it is shown that the category of semi-free curved differential graded algebras is equivalent to the category of corings with surjective counits. Under this equivalence, comodules over a coring correspond to integrable connections or quasi-cohesive curved modules, while contramodules over a coring correspond to a specific class of curved modules introduced and termed Z-divergences in here.Comment: 25 page
