Dec 5, 2018 at 10:46 comment added Praphulla Koushik @BertramArnold Do you have a reference (paper/notes) where this is done in detail.. I think I need this kind of approach to appreciate more of what is going on..
Dec 5, 2018 at 9:47 comment added Bertram Arnold Morphisms of Lie groupoids define morphisms of prestacks and then morphisms of stacks by functoriality of stackification. If you unwrap the definitions this morphism of stacks will send trivialized $\mathcal G$-bundles (coming from maps $X\to \mathcal G_0$) to the corresponding trivialized $\mathcal H$-bundles (postcompose with the object map of the functor to get $X\to\mathcal H_0$). In general choose a local trivialization and patch the corresponding trivialized $\mathcal H$-bundles together. You can do this for the "universal" $\mathcal G$-bundle over $B\mathcal G$ to get the bibundle.
Dec 4, 2018 at 20:59 comment added Praphulla Koushik @BertramArnold One thing that I do not understand is how did you figure out $F(t:\mathcal{G}_1\rightarrow \mathcal{G}_0)$ has to be? I mean what is your definition of map of stacks $B\mathcal{G}\rightarrow B\mathcal{H}$ associated to a morphism of Lie groupoids $\mathcal{G}\rightarrow \mathcal{H}$. My definition (you can see in edit) involves some quotients and notion of bibundle and all which turns out to be $\mathcal{G}_0\times_{\mathcal{H}_0}\mathcal{H}_1$. Can you say how you associate a $B\mathcal{G}\rightarrow B\mathcal{H}$ given a map $\mathcal{G}\rightarrow \mathcal{H}$ ..

Dec 4, 2018 at 14:47 comment added Praphulla Koushik @BertramArnold After writing it in detail, I feel this is not suitable for MO. As I have written anyways, do you want to comment on it? Is this is what you had in mind when you say it follows from definition?

Dec 4, 2018 at 13:59 comment added Praphulla Koushik @BertramArnold Even in Lie groupoid extension it is not that obvious for me... Please wait for some more time so that I can write down what I am planning to write :D
Dec 4, 2018 at 13:48 comment added Bertram Arnold As you said a general morphism of stacks can't preserve "unit" principal bundles. If both stacks are presented by groupoids and the morphism is presented by a functor it sends the unit bundle of $\mathcal G$ to the pullback of the unit bundle of $\mathcal H$ along the object map of the functor (which should be something like the formula at the end of my previous comment), so in case of a Lie groupoid extension it does preserve unit bundles. All of this should more or less follow from the definitions, in particular how a Lie functor defines a fibered functor between the presented stacks.
Dec 4, 2018 at 13:13 comment added Praphulla Koushik In that case, object $t:\mathcal{G}_1\rightarrow \mathcal{G}_0$ goes to some thing of the form $Q\rightarrow \mathcal{G}_0$ in $B\mathcal{H}$. As $\mathcal{H}_0=\mathcal{G}_0$, object $t:\mathcal{G}_1\rightarrow \mathcal{G}_0$ goes to some thing of the form $Q\rightarrow \mathcal{H}_0$ in $B\mathcal{H}$. Now, I can ask if this $Q\rightarrow \mathcal{H}_0$ is same as that of the unit element $\mathcal{H}_1\rightarrow \mathcal{H}_0$ in $B\mathcal{H}$. This is what I meant to ask. I am editing the question so that it makes some sense. @BertramArnold
Dec 4, 2018 at 13:13 comment added Praphulla Koushik There is something here which does not make sense. As any map of stacks $B\mathcal{G}\rightarrow B\mathcal{H}$ is fiber preserving, it takes an object $t:\mathcal{G}_1\rightarrow \mathcal{G}_0$ in $B\mathcal{G}$ to some thing of the form $Q\rightarrow \mathcal{G}_0$ which can not be $t:\mathcal{H}_1\rightarrow \mathcal{H}_0$. I was having in mind the map of stacks coming from a Lie groupid extension (which is simply a morphism of Lie groupoids with same base i.e., $\mathcal{G}_0=\mathcal{H}_0$ with some extra condition on $\phi:\mathcal{G}_1\rightarrow \mathcal{H}_1$).
Dec 4, 2018 at 12:42 comment added Praphulla Koushik I think you mean to say "[---] If you present the morphism as a functor $F:\mathcal{G}\rightarrow \mathcal{H}$ [---]"... @BertramArnold

Dec 4, 2018 at 11:53 comment added Bertram Arnold What do you mean by an element of a stack? For me a stack is a sheaf of groupoids, and the principal bundle $t:\mathcal G_1\to\mathcal G_0$ is an object in the groupoid $B\mathcal G(\mathcal G_0)$. A morphism of stacks $B\mathcal G\to\mathcal BH$ sends this to an object of $B\mathcal H(G_0)$, and if you present the morphism as a functor $F_i:\mathcal G_i\to\mathcal H_i$, you can check that this object is the principal $\mathcal H$-bundle $\mathcal H_1\times_{t,\mathcal H_0,F_0}\mathcal G_0$ (the map $F_i$ and functoriality is used to turn this into a principal bundle).
