Let SU_X(3) be the moduli space of semi-stable vector bundles of rank 3 and trivial determinant on a curve X of genus 2. It maps onto P^8 and the map is a double cover branched over a sextic hypersurface called the Coble sextic. In the dual…

Let $Q_i(i=1,2)$ be $2g$ dimensional quadrics in $\mathbb{P}^{2g+1}$ and let $Y$ be the smooth intersection $Q_1\cap Q_2$. We associate the linear subspace in $Y$ with vector bundles on the hyperelliptic curve $C$ of genus $g$ by the left…

We study GL(2)-bundles with connections with a small parameter on a smooth projective curve. We describe an open subset in the moduli space of such bundles. The description degenerates into the Hitchin fibration as the parameter tends to…

In this paper we describe the cohomogeneity one special Lagrangian 3-folds in the cotangent bundle of the 3-sphere, also known in the physics literature as a deformed conifold. Our main result gives a global foliation of the deformed…

We study the Hitchin map for $G_{\mathbb{R}}$-Higgs bundles on a smooth curve, where $G_{\mathbb{R}}$ is a quasi-split real form of a complex reductive algebraic group $G$. By looking at the moduli stack of regular $G_{\mathbb{R}}$-Higgs…

Let $X$ be a compact connected Riemann surface of genus $g$, with $g\, \geq\,2$, and let $\xi$ be a holomorphic line bundle on $X$ with $\xi^{\otimes 2}\,=\, {\mathcal O}_X$. Fix a theta characteristic $\mathbb L$ on $X$. Let ${\mathcal…

In this paper, we study the monodromy of the Hitchin fibration for rank 2 vector bundles over hyperelliptic curves. We reduce the problem to studying a surface braid group generalization of the classical Burau representation, and give a…

We give an explicit geometric structures interpretation of the $G_2'$-Hitchin component $Hit(S, G_2') \subset \chi(\pi_1S,G_2')$ of a closed oriented surface $S$ of genus $g \geq 2$. In particular, we prove $Hit(S, G_2')$ is naturally…

Holomorphic chains on a Riemann surface arise naturally as fixed points of the natural C*-action on the moduli space of Higgs bundles. In this paper we associate a new quiver bundle to the Hom-complex of two chains, and prove that stability…

This is the third of a series of papers relating intersections of special cycles on the integral model of a Shimura surface to Fourier coefficients of Hilbert modular forms. More precisely, we embed the Shimura curve over Q associated to a…

It is shown that every bundle $\varSigma\to M$ of complex spinor modules over the Clifford bundle $\Cl(g)$ of a Riemannian space $(M,g)$ with local model $(V,h)$ is associated with an lpin ("Lipschitz") structure on $M$, this being a…

We consider the moduli space of rank 2 Higgs bundles with fixed determinant over a smooth projective curve X of genus 2 over the complex numbers, and study involutions defined by tensoring the vector bundle with an element $\alpha$ of order…

In this paper, we study the moduli space of Higgs pairs, which can be considered as a generalization of holomorphic pairs. Higgs pairs are an example of quiver bundles. We introduce the notion of $\tau$-stability of Higgs pairs for…

A smooth intersection $Y$ of two quadrics in $\mathbb{P}^{2g+1}$ has Hodge level 1. We show that such varieties $Y$ have a multiplicative Chow-K\"unneth decomposition, in the sense of Shen-Vial. As a consequence, a certain tautological…

We construct a Lagrangian formulation of Hitchin's self-duality equations on a Riemann surface $\Sigma$ using potentials for the connection and Higgs field. This two-dimensional action is then obtained from a four-dimensional Chern-Simons…

This work is the geometric part of our proof of the weighted fundamental lemma, which is an extension of Ng\^o Bao Ch\^au's proof of the Langlands-Shelstad fundamental lemma. Ng\^o's approach is based on a study of the elliptic part of the…

A diffeomorphism between the twistor spaces of two Riemannian metrics on a smooth manifold preserving the fibres is defined based on a well-known construction. It is shown that this bundle isomorphim is a holomorphic map with respect to the…

We study the monodromy of the Hitchin fibration for moduli spaces of parabolic G-Higgs bundles in the cases when G=SL(2,R), GL(2,R) and PGL(2,R) A calculation of the orbits of the monodromy with Z2-coefficients provides an exact count of…

On a complex manifold, a co-Higgs bundle is a holomorphic vector bundle with an endomorphism twisted by the tangent bundle. The notion of generalized holomorphic bundle in Hitchin's generalized geometry coincides with that of co-Higgs…

The Hodge Conjecture is equivalent to a statement about conditions under which a complex vector bundle on a smooth complex projective variety admits a holomorphic structure. I advertise a class of abelian four-folds due to Mumford where…
