Non-Hausdorffness shows up in several contexts when dealing with Lie groupoids: the integration (Lie's 3rd Theorem) for Lie algebroids to Lie groupoids will typically produce a non-Hausdorff one, if i …

Automorphism group of a fiber bundle surjects onto diffeomorphism group?

This should surely be well-known by I have not been able to find a good reference to the following question: Given a smooth fiber bundle $\pi\colon P \longrightarrow M$ over a smooth manifold $M$ with …
