The classical Prym construction associates to a smooth, genus $g$ complex curve $X$ equipped with a nonzero cohomology class $\theta \in H^1(X,\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z})$, a principally polarized abelian variety (PPAV) $\mbox{Prym}(X,\theta)$.…

For a reductive group $G$, Harder-Narasimhan theory gives a structure theorem for principal $G$ bundles on a smooth projective curve $C$. A bundle is either semistable, or it admits a canonical parabolic reduction whose associated Levi…

Holomorphic principal G-bundles over a complex manifold M can be studied using non-abelian cohomology groups H^1(M,G). On the other hand, if M=\Sigma is a closed Riemann surface, there is a correspondence between holomorphic principal…

For a connected regular scheme X, flat and of finite type over Spec(Z), we construct a reciprocity homomorphism \rho_X: C_X --> \pi_1^\ab(X), which is surjective and whose kernel is the connected component of the identity. The (topological)…

We study cohomology support loci of regular holonomic D-modules on complex abelian varieties, and obtain conditions under which each irreducible component of such a locus contains a torsion point. One case is that both the D-module and the…

A rigidity property for the homotopy invariant stable linear framed presheaves is established. As a consequence a variant of Gabber rigidity theorem is obtained for a cohomology theory representable in the motivic stable homotopy category…

We establish an isomorphism of complex $K$-theory of the moduli space $\check{\mathcal{M}}$ of $``SL_n"$-Higgs bundles of degree $d$ and rank $n$ (in the sense of Hausel--Thaddeus) and twisted complex $K$-theory of the orbifold…

This is a survey of various results about spectral covers and their relationship to Higgs bundles. To a G-principal Higgs bundle on a variety S corresponds a cameral cover \widetilde{S} of S (a W-Galois cover, where W is the Weyl group of…

For a smooth projective curve $X$ over $\mathbb C_p$ and any reductive group $G$, we show that the moduli stack of $G$-Higgs bundles on $X$ is a twist of the moduli stack of v-topological $G$-bundles on $X_v$ in a canonical way. We explain…
