principal bundles with connection and differential K-theory

Idea

We apply the general formalism of differential cohomology - nonabelian case to the case of nonabelian cohomology with coeffients in the delooping BG of an ordinary nonabelian Lie group G.

In particular, we consider the case that G=U is the unitary group and show that in this case our general abstract nonsense definition reproduces the notions of Simons-Sullivan structured bundles with connection that may be used to model differential K-theory.
