Idea

In the context of twisted cohomology a cocycle on a space XX with coefficients in a coefficient object VV is not quite a direct morphism XVX \to V as in ordinary GG-cohomology, but is instead a section of a VV-fiber ∞-bundle EXE \to X over XX. This is called the local coefficient bundle for the given twisted cohomology. Its class [E]H 1(X,Aut(V))[E] \in H^1(X, \mathbf{Aut}(V)) is the twist.
