This letter describes a completely-integrable system of Yang-Mills-Higgs equations which generalizes the Hitchin equations on a Riemann surface to arbitrary k-dimensional complex manifolds. The system arises as a dimensional reduction of a…

N. Hitchin recently introduced the notion of folded hyperK\"ahler metrics, in relation with SL(\infty,R) Higgs bundles. We provide a construction of such metrics, and prove the local existence of the Hitchin component for SL(\infty,R).
A known general class of superintegrable systems on 2D spaces of constant curvature can be defined by potentials separating in (geodesic) polar coordinates. The radial parts of these potentials correspond either to an isotropic harmonic…
In this PhD thesis, we give a new geometric approach to higher Teichm\"uller theory. In particular we construct a geometric structure on surfaces, generalizing the complex structure, and we explore its link to Hitchin components. The…
Following Simpson we consider the integrable system structure on the moduli spaces of Higgs bundles on a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$. We propose a description of the corresponding spectral cover of $X$ as the fiberwise projective dual to…
The primary aim of this thesis is to investigate metrics which are induced by a differential form and arise as a critical point of Hitchin's variational principle. Firstly, we investigate metrics associated with the structure group PSU(3)…
A hyperk\"ahler manifold is defined as a Riemannian manifold endowed with three covariantly constant complex structures that are quaternionically related. A twistor space is characterized as a holomorphic fiber bundle $p: \mathcal{Z}…
A quantum system can be entirely described by the K\"ahler structure of the projective space P(H) associated to the Hilbert space H of possible states; this is the so-called geometrical formulation of quantum mechanics. In this paper, we…
In this paper, we talk about parahoric Hitchin systems over smooth projective curves with structure group a semisimple simply connected group. We describe the geometry of generic fibers of parahoric Hitchin fibrations using root stacks. We…
In this paper we introduce a geometric framework for mixed quantum states based on a K\"ahler structure. The geometric framework includes a symplectic form, an almost complex structure, and a Riemannian metric that characterize the space of…
The scalars in vector multiplets of N=2 supersymmetric theories in 4 dimensions exhibit `special Kaehler geometry', related to duality symmetries, due to their coupling to the vectors. In the literature there is some confusion on the…
In this paper the moduli space of Higgs pairs over a fixed smooth projective curve with extra formal data is defined and it is endowed with a scheme structure. We introduce a relative version of the Krichever map using a fibration of Sato…
After a review of the general properties of holomorphic spheres in complex surfaces we describe the local geometry in the vicinity of a CP^1 embedded with a negative normal bundle. As a by-product, we build (asymptotically locally…
We construct a hyperk\"ahler metric on twisted cotangent bundles of the complex projective space $\mathbb{CP}^n$ explicitly in terms of local coordinates. Note that the twisted cotangent bundles of $\mathbb{CP}^n$ are holomorphically…
In this paper, we confirm a physical conjecture regarding the parabolic $\mathrm{SO}_{2n}$-Hitchin system, showing that Hitchin map factors through a finite cover of the Hitchin base that is isomorphic to an affine space. We first show that…
We present an infinite-dimensional hyperk\"ahler reduction that extends the classical moment map picture of Fujiki and Donaldson for the scalar curvature of K\"ahler metrics. We base our approach on an explicit construction of hyperk\"ahler…
By analogy with work of Hitchin on integrable systems, we construct natural relaxations of several kinds of moduli spaces of difference equations, with special attention to a particular class of difference equations on an elliptic curve…
We introduce and analyze a new geometric structure on topological surfaces generalizing the complex structure. To define this so called higher complex structure we use the punctual Hilbert scheme of the plane. The moduli space of higher…
This work consists in applying the analysis of integrable models to study the problem of Hyper-Kahler metrics building. In this context, we use the harmonic superspace language applied to D=2 N=4 SU(2) Liouville self interacting model and…
