In this note we consider the flat bundle U and the kernel K of the Higgs field naturally associated to any (polarized) variation of Hodge structures of weight 1. We study how strict the inclusion of U in K can be in the geometric case. More…

The moduli space of Higgs bundles can be constructed as a quotient of an infinite-dimensional space and hence admits an orbit type decomposition. In this paper, we show that the orbit type decomposition is a complex Whitney stratification…

Let $G$ be a group and $S$ a unital epsilon-strongly $G$-graded algebra. We construct spectral sequences converging to the Hochschild (co)homology of $S$. Each spectral sequence is expressed in terms of the partial group (co)homology of $G$…

We study harmonic bundles with an additional structure called symplectic structure. We study them for the case of the base manifold is compact and non-compact. For the compact case, we show that a harmonic bundle with a symplectic structure…

We investigate a 5D SU(6) grand gauge-Higgs unification model compactified on an orbifold S^1/Z_2. Ordinary quarks and leptons, together with right-handed neutrinos, are just accommodated into a minimal set of representations of the gauge…

Let $X$ be a connected complex manifold equipped with a holomorphic action of a complex Lie group $G$. We investigate conditions under which a principal bundle on $X$ admits a $G$--equivariance structure.

We define the quasi-compact Higgs $G^{\mathbb C}$-bundles over singular curves introduced in our previous paper for the Lie group SL($N$). The quasi-compact structure means that the automorphism groups of the bundles are reduced to the…

Building on our previous joint work with A. Schmitt [7] we explain a recursive algorithm to determine the cohomology of moduli spaces of Higgs bundles on any given curve (in the coprime situation). As an application of the method we compute…

We provide several results on splice-quotient singularities: a combinatorial expression of the dimension of the first cohomology of all `natural' line bundles, an equivariant Campillo-Delgado-Gusein-Zade type formula about the dimension of…

In this note we prove a new explicit formula for the invariants of moduli spaces of twisted Higgs bundles over P^1 and we relate these invariants to the invariants of moduli spaces of representations of some infinite symmetric quiver. The…

I review the holographic techniques used to efficiently study models with Gauge-Higgs Unification (GHU) in one extra dimension. The general features of GHU models in flat extra dimensions are then reviewed, emphasizing the aspects related…

Let $k$ be an algebraic closure of finite fields with odd characteristic $p$ and a smooth projective scheme $\mathbf{X}/W(k)$. Let $\mathbf{X}^0$ be its generic fiber and $X$ the closed fiber. For $\mathbf{X}^0$ a curve Faltings conjectured…

In this paper, we study holomorphic vector bundles on (diagonal) Hopf manifolds. In particular, we give a description of moduli spaces of stable bundles on generic (non-elliptic) Hopf surfaces. We also give a classification of stable rank-2…

We determine the local spectrum of a central element of the complexified universal enveloping algebra of a compact connected Lie group at a smooth function as an element of L^p(G). Based on this result we establish a corresponding local…

These are the lecture notes from my course in the January 2011 School on Moduli Spaces at the Newton Institute. I give an introduction to Higgs bundles and their application to the study of character varieties for surface group…

The purpose of this paper is to study the Plancherel formula for the spaces of $L^2$-sections of the line bundles over the pseudo-Riemannian space $G/H$, where $G={\rm SL}(n+1, {\mathbb R})$ and $H={\rm S}({\rm GL}(1, {\mathbb R})\times…

Let G be a finite group and p a prime dividing its order. We define new collections of p-subgroups of G. We study the homotopy relations among them and with the standard collections of p-subgroups. We determine their ampleness and sharpness…

We analyze Higgs bundles $(V,\phi)$ on a class of elliptic surfaces $\pi:X\to B$, whose underlying vector bundle $V$ has vertical determinant and is fiberwise semistable. We prove that if the spectral curve of $V$ is reduced, then $\phi$ is…

The importance of the mass spectroscopy of the superparticles is emphasized. It will be shown that the gauge coupling constants give us information on the GUT-scale mass spectrum once the superparticle masses are known. The gaugino masses…

The article takes the formula for the integrable system defined by Beauville et al on the cotangent bundle of the intersection of two quadrics X, and interprets it in terms of rank 2 quasi parabolic Higgs bundles on the projective line. We…
