Higher holonomy and iterated integrals (Q2055086)

Summary: We develop a method to construct representations of the homotopy \(n\)-groupoid of a manifold as an \(n\)-category by means of K.-T. Chen's formal homology connections for any positive integer \(n\). We establish a higher holonomy functor from the homotopy \(n\)-groupoid to a category obtained from the tensor algebra over the homology of the manifold. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1466.57001].
