The author develops a general theory of quantum principal bundles with a compact matrix quantum group as the structure group. In contrast to his earlier work [Commun. Math. Phys. 175, No. 3, 457--520 (1996; Zbl 0840.58009)], which studied bundles over a usual smooth manifold with structure group a quantum group, the theory developed here allows also the base to be a noncommutative space. After reviewing some facts about compact matrix quantum groups and differential calculi on them, the author gives the definition of quantum principal bundles and appropriate differential calculi on them and discusses various subspaces of differential forms on the total space. Next, the notion of a connection is introduced and the existence of connections is proved using representation theory of compact matrix quantum groups. The special classes of multiplicative and of regular connections are introduced and discussed. Then the curvature of a connection is introduced making choices, the independence of the choices in the case of multiplicative connections is proved, and the properties of the curvature are discussed. It is also shown that in the case where regular connections exist, one can ensure existence of multiplicative connections by appropriately changing the differential calculus. The basics of the theory of characteristic classes are outlined. Next, the author discusses several examples as well as relations to other approaches to noncommutative principal bundles. Also, the question of getting a differential calculus on the base of a quantum principal bundle from a differential calculus on the total space is discussed. Finally, in two appendices material about bicovariant exterior algebras and the representation theory of compact matrix quantum groups is presented.
