Abstract

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>Previous work (Pradines, C.R. Acad. Sci. Paris 263 (1966) 907, Aof and Brown, Topology Appl. 47 (1992) 97) has given a setting for a holonomy Lie groupoid of a locally Lie groupoid. Here we develop analogous 2-dimensional notions starting from a locally Lie crossed module of groupoids. This involves replacing the Ehresmann notion of a local smooth coadmissible section of a groupoid by a local smooth coadmissible homotopy (or free derivation) for the crossed module case. The development also has to use corresponding notions for certain types of double groupoids. This leads to a holonomy Lie groupoid rather than double groupoid, but one which involves the <inline-formula><tex-math id="M1">\begin{document}$ 2 $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula>-dimensional information.</p>
