Sheaves, principal bundles, and Cech cohomology for diffeological spaces

Abstract

The purpose of this note is to define sheaves for diffeological spaces and give a construction of their Cech cohomology. As an application, we prove that the first degree Cech cohomology classes for the sheaf of smooth functions to an abelian diffeological group G classify the diffeological principal G-bundles.
