Abstract

We define and analyze various generalizations of the punctual Hilbert scheme of the plane, associated to complex or real Lie algebras. Out of these, we construct new geometric structures on surfaces whose moduli spaces share multiple properties with Hitchin components, and which are conjecturally homeomorphic to them. For simple complex Lie algebras, this generalizes the higher complex structure. For real Lie algebras, this should give an alternative description of the Hitchin-Kostant-Rallis section.
