Let $X$ be a smooth irreducible projective curve. Recently, Pauly and Pe\'on-Nieto shows that a vector bundle over $X$ is very stable if and only if the Hitchin map on the vector space of Higgs field on that vector bundle is proper. In this…

Let $G$ be an almost simple simply-connected affine algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p > 0$. If $G$ has type $B_n$, $C_n$ or $F_4$, we assume that $p > 2$, and if $G$ has type $G_2$, we assume that…

We observe that if we are interested primarily in degeneration arguments, there is a weaker notion of (semi)stability for vector bundles on reducible curves, which is sufficient for many applications, and does not depend on a choice of…
