Abstract

We develop a Kobayashi-Hitchin correspondence for the extended Bogomolny equations, i.e., the dimensionally reduced Kapustin-Witten equations, on the product of a compact Riemann surface Σ\Sigma with Ry+{\mathbb R}^+_y, with generalized Nahm pole boundary conditions at y=0y=0. The correspondence is between solutions of these equations satisfying these singular boundary conditions and also limiting to flat connections as yy \to \infty, and certain holomorphic data consisting of effective triplets (E,φ,L)(\mathcal E, \varphi, L) where (E,φ)(\mathcal E, \varphi) is a stable SL(n+1,C)\mathrm{SL}(n+1,\mathbb C) Higgs pair and LEL \subset \mathcal E is a holomorphic line bundle. This corroborates a prediction of Gaiotto and Witten, and is an extension of our earlier paper \cite{HeMazzeo2017} which treats only the SL(2,R)\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb R) case.
