Does anybody know a good reference where to study vector bundle stacks? I am interested in a situation of this type: $f:\mathcal{F}\to\mathcal{G}$ is a morphism of stacks which is non-representable but whose fibers have constant dimension. Is this a vector bundle stack?

    $\begingroup$ I really think you should give more information in your question. Based off of what you have said, I would likely think that your map is flat and not necessarily anything more. Have you checked that $f$ is smooth? Secondly, what exactly do you mean by vector bundle stack? Do your fibers look something like the quotient stack $V/W$ for some finite dimensional vector spaces $V$ and $W$ (for example, the tangent stack is something like this)? $\endgroup$ Apr 20, 2011 at 13:54

The conditions that you list are certainly not enough for something to be a vector bundle stack.

Forget stacks.
Even for varieties, the conditions that you list are not enough to be a vector bundle: you're just asking that the fibers have constant dimension...

So, to your question "Is this a vector bundle stack?", I respond, perhaps disappointingly, "no".
