We consider classical gauge theory with spontaneous symmetry breaking on a principal bundle $P\to X$ whose structure group $G$ is reducible to a closed subgroup $H$, and sections of the quotient bundle $P/H\to X$ are treated as classical…

The central result of this paper is an identification of the shifted Cartier dual of the moduli stack $\mathcal{M}_{\mathfrak{g}}(C)$ of $\widetilde{G}$-Higgs bundles on $C$ of arbitrary degree (modulo shifts by $Z(\widetilde{G})$) with a…

We consider the moduli space ${\cal M}(G)$ of $G$-Higgs bundles over a compact Riemann surface $X$, where $G$ is a semisimple complex Lie group, and study the action of a finite group $\Gamma$ on ${\cal M}(G)$ induced by a holomorphic…

In [GM], a family of parabolic Higgs bundles on $CP^1$ has been constructed and identified with a moduli space of hyperpolygons. Our aim here is to give a canonical alternative construction of this family. This enables us to compute the…

We introduce a notion of quasi-antisymmetric Higgs $G$-bundles over curves with marked points. They are endowed with additional structures, which replace the parabolic structures at marked points in the parabolic Higgs bundles. The latter…

On a compact connected Riemann surface $C$ of genus at least $2$, we construct Lagrangian correspondences between moduli spaces of rank-$n$ Higgs bundles (respectively, holomorphic connections) and the Hilbert schemes of points on $T^\ast…

Let $G$ be a split connected semisimple group over a field. We give a conjectural formula for the motive of the stack of $G$-bundles over a curve $C$, in terms of special values of the motivic zeta function of $C$. The formula is true if…
