The van Est theorem for double Lie groupoids
Let a double Lie groupoid have an associated LA-groupoid obtained by differentiation in the vertical direction. Let the vertical source fiber be -connected, where connectivity is understood in the relevant -categorical sense.
Double-groupoid van Est conjecture. There is a van Est map from the cohomology of the double Lie groupoid to the cohomology of its LA-groupoid. If differentiation takes place in the vertical direction and the vertical source fiber is -connected, then this map is an isomorphism through degree and is injective in degree .
This is the proposed higher analogue of the ordinary van Est isomorphism theorem. It remains conjectural in the source.
