We prove an analogue of the Madsen-Weiss theorem for high dimensional manifolds. For example, we explicitly describe the ring of characteristic classes of smooth fibre bundles whose fibres are connected sums of g copies of S^n x S^n, in the…
We review our recent works on solitons in U(Nc) gauge theories with Nf (>Nc) Higgs fields in the fundamental representation, which possess eight supercharges. The moduli matrix is proposed as a crucial tool to exhaust all BPS solutions, and…
Maulik and Ranganathan have recently introduced moduli spaces of logarithmic stable pairs. We examine the theory in the case of toric surfaces, and recast the theory in this case using three ingredients: Gelfand, Kapranov and Zelevinsky…
Exploiting the description of rings of differential operators as Azumaya algebras on cotangent bundles, we show that the moduli stack of flat connections on a curve (allowed to acquire orbifold points) defined over an algebraically closed…
The Abelian Higgs model on a compact Riemann surface \Sigma of genus g is considered. We show that for g > 1 the Bogomolny equations for multi-vortices at critical coupling can be obtained as compatibility conditions of two linear equations…
We study the moduli of anti-invariant Higgs bundles as introduced by Zelaci. Using recent existence results of Alper, Halpern-Leistner and Heinloth we establish the existence of a separated good moduli space for semistable anti-invariant…
We construct a moduli space of stable maps with fields associated to a triple $(X,E,s)$ of a projective variety (or a DM stack with projective moduli space) a vector bundle and a section. We show the class coincides up to a sign with 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…
In general, a Kobayashi-Hitchin correspondence establishes an isomorphism between a moduli space of stable algebraic geometric objects and a moduli space of solutions of a certain (generalized) Hermite-Einstein equation. We believe that,…
In this paper, we present an algebro-geometric construction of the Hitchin connection in the parabolic setting for a fixed determinant line bundle. Our strategy is based on Hecke modifications, where we provide a decomposition formula for…
A projective moduli space of pairs (C,E) where E is a slope- semistable torsion free sheaf of uniform rank on a Deligne- Mumford stable curve C is constructed via G.I.T. There is a natural SL x SL action on the relative Quot scheme over the…
We prove homological stability for two different flavours of asymptotic monopole moduli spaces, namely moduli spaces of framed Dirac monopoles and moduli spaces of ideal monopoles. The former are Gibbons-Manton torus bundles over…
We give definitions of moduli spaces of framed, r-Spin and Pin surfaces. We apply earlier work of the author to show that each of these moduli spaces exhibits homological stability, and we identify the stable integral homology with that of…
We consider the vortex equations for a U(n) gauge field coupled to a Higgs field with values on the n times n square matrices. It is known that when these equations are defined on a compact Riemann surface, their moduli space of solutions…
For any almost-simple group $G$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic zero, we describe the automorphism group of the moduli space of semistable $G$-bundles over a connected smooth projective curve $C$ of genus at least…
We study the Hitchin maps on the moduli spaces of Hitchin sheaves and parabolic Hitchin sheaves on a nodal integral curve $Y$. We study their fibres, the BNR correspondences and the relation of the restriction of the Hitchin map with very…
Consider the moduli space M^0 of arrangements of n hyperplanes in general position in projective (r-1)-space. When r=2 the space has a compactification given by the moduli space of stable curves of genus 0 with n marked points. In higher…
We study certain moduli spaces of stable vector bundles of rank two on cubic and quartic threefolds. In many cases under consideration, it turns out that the moduli space is complete and irreducible and a general member has vanishing…
In this paper, we redefine the theory of walls and chambers due to Qin developing a new tool to study moduli spaces of stable rank 2 vector bundles on algebraic varieties of higher dimension. We apply it to describe components of some…
We develop the theory of associating moduli spaces with nice geometric properties to arbitrary Artin stacks generalizing Mumford's geometric invariant theory and tame stacks.
