Abstract: We extend the definitions and main properties of graded extensions to the category of locally compact groupoids endowed with involutions. We introduce Real v{C}ech cohomology, which is an equivariant-like cohomology theory suitable for the context of groupoids with involutions. The Picard group of such a groupoid is discussed and is given a cohomological picture. Eventually, we generalize Crainic's result, about the differential cohomology of a proper Lie groupoid with coefficients in a given representation, to the topological case.


This paper introduces the definitions and the properties naturally associated with the category of locally compact groupoids endowed with involutions. The author starts with recalling notions and results about real groupoids. Then, the real Cech cohomology is defined. The Picard group is also considered and studied. Finally, a result by Crainic is generalized to topological proper real groupoids.
