We provide a formula describing the G-module structure of the Hurwitz-Hodge bundle for admissible G-covers in terms of the Hodge bundle of the base curve, and more generally, for describing the G-module structure of the push-forward to the…
We introduce and study the moduli stack $\mathcal{Y}$ of Breuil-Kisin modules with $\hat{G}$-structure and descent data, or Breuil-Kisin $(\Gamma,\hat{G})$-torsors for short. Specifically, for a dominant cocharacter $\mu$, we define the…
For smooth families with maximal variation, whose general fibers have semi-ample canonical bundle, the generalized Viehweg hyperbolicity conjecture states that the base spaces of such families are of log general type. This deep conjecture…
Using the L^2 norm of the Higgs field as a Morse function, we study the moduli spaces of U(p,q)-Higgs bundles over a Riemann surface. We require that the genus of the surface be at least two, but place no constraints on (p,q). A key step is…
We give a classification of all equivariant line of bundles on the semi-stable model $\hat{\mathbb{H}}$ of the Drinfeld upper half plane $\mathbb{H}$ on $\mathbb{Q}_p$ for a certain subgroup $[G]_2$ of ${\rm GL}_2(\mathbb{Q}_p)$ of index…
We prove a Torelli theorem for the moduli space of semistable parabolic Higgs bundles over a smooth complex projective algebraic curve under the assumption that the parabolic weight system is generic. When the genus is at least two, using…
We study a variety of questions centered around the computation of cohomology of line bundles on the incidence correspondence (the partial flag variety parametrizing pairs consisting of a point in projective space and a hyperplane…
We prove that for every reductive algebraic group $H$ with centre of positive dimension and every integer $K$ there is a smooth and projective variety $X$ and an algebraic $H$-torsor $P \to X$ such that the classifying map $X \to \Bclass H$…
The aim of this paper is two-fold: Firstly, we prove Toda's $\chi$-independence conjecture for Gopakumar--Vafa invariants of arbitrary local curves. Secondly, following Davison's work, we introduce the BPS cohomology for moduli spaces of…
We prove by induction on dimension the Hodge conjecture for smooth complex projective varieties. Let $X$ be a smooth complex projective variety. Then $X$ is birational to a possibly singular projective hypersurface, hence to a smooth…
We look at rank two parabolic Higgs bundles over the projective line minus five points which are semistable with respect to a weight vector $\mu\in[0,1]^5$. The moduli space corresponding to the central weight $\mu_c=(\frac{1}{2}, \dots,…
We study non-abelian differentiable gerbes over stacks using the theory of Lie groupoids. More precisely, we develop the theory of connections on Lie groupoid $G$-extensions, which we call "connections on gerbes", and study the induced…
Let Y be a smooth algebraic stack exhausted by quotient stacks. Given a Kirwan-Ness stratification of the cotangent stack T^*Y, we establish a recollement package for twisted D-modules on Y, gluing the category from subquotients described…
This expository paper details the theory of rank one Higgs bundles over a closed Riemann surface X and their relationship to representations of the fundamental group of X. We construct an equivalence between the deformation theories of flat…
We initiate a systematic study on the cohomology rings of the moduli stack $\mathfrak{M}_{d,\chi}$ of semistable one-dimensional sheaves on the projective plane. We introduce a set of tautological relations of geometric origin, including…
We give an overview of the work of Corlette, Donaldson, Hitchin and Simpson leading to the non-abelian Hodge theory correspondence between representations of the fundamental group of a surface and the moduli space of Higgs bundles. We then…
The enumerative geometry of r-th roots of line bundles is the subject of Witten's conjecture and occurs in the calculation of Gromov-Witten invariants of orbifolds. It requires the definition of the suitable compact moduli stack and the…
Higgs bundles over a closed orientable surface can be defined for any real reductive Lie group G. In this paper we examine the case G=SO*(2n). We describe a rigidity phenomenon encountered in the case of maximal Toledo invariant. Using this…
We generalize positivity results due to Popa-Wu and Popa-Schnell for Hodge modules and Higgs bundles on smooth projective varieties to the case of smooth proper DM stacks admitting projective coarse moduli spaces. This paper is the first in…
We define the C^*-action on moduli spaces of reductive representations of fundamental groups of quasi-compact Kaehler manifolds by solving Hermitian-Yang-Mills equation. As applications in algebraic geometry we show a non-abelian Hodge…
