Abstract
In this chapter we consider the relation between principal H-bundles and principal G-bundles, where H is a closed subgroup of G. We do this for general principal bundles and then describe the relation, using the classifying spaces and the local coordinate description. This is a generalization of the process in Chap. 5, Sec. 7.
