We develop a Lie-theoretic perspective on Hitchin's equations for cyclic $G$-Higgs bundles, which we use to study analytic and geometric properties of harmonic maps. Among other things, we prove Dai-Li's conjecture on the monotonicity of…

For G = GL_2, PGL_2 and SL_2 we prove that the perverse filtration associated to the Hitchin map on the cohomology of the moduli space of twisted G-Higgs bundles on a Riemann surface C agrees with the weight filtration on the cohomology of…

For a smooth complex algebraic curve $X$ and a reduced effective divisor $D$ on $X$, we introduce a notion of $D$-level structure on parahoric $\mathcal{G}_{\boldsymbol \theta}$-torsors over $X$, for any connected complex reductive Lie…

We define and parametrise so-called $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$-type fibres of the $\mathsf{Sp}(2n,\mathbb{C})$- and $\mathsf{SO}(2n+1,\mathbb{C})$-Hitchin system. These are (singular) Hitchin fibres, where the spectral curve induces a two-sheeted…

The non-abelian Hodge correspondence identifies complex variations of Hodge structures with certain Higgs bundles. In this work we analyze this relationship, and some of its ramifications, when the variations of Hodge structures are…

We introduce a class of Higgs bundles called cyclic which lie in the Hitchin component of representations of a compact Riemann surface into the split real form of a simple Lie group. We then prove that such a Higgs bundle is equivalent to a…

We shall construct a natural Higgs bundle structure on the complexified K\"ahler cone of a compact K\"ahler manifold, which can be seen as an analogy of the classical Higgs bundle structure associated to a variation of Hodge structure. In…

We describe spectral data for singular fibres of the $\mathsf{SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$-Hitchin fibration with irreducible and reduced spectral curve. Using Hecke transformations we give a stratification of these singular spaces by fibre bundles…

Inspired by a string duality, we construct a deformation family for $G_2$-orbifolds given as total spaces of coassociative fibrations by ADE singularities over a closed and oriented smooth three-manifold $Q$. The deformations are…

Fix a non-stacky component of the moduli of stable Higgs bundles, on which the Hitchin fibration is proper. We show that any smooth Hitchin fiber determines a microsheaf on the global nilpotent cone, that distinct fibers give rise to…

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…

In a recent paper \cite{3}, a semi-stable degeneration of moduli space of Higgs bundles on a curve has been constructed. In this paper, we show that there is a relative log-symplectic form on this degeneration, whose restriction to the…

Let $S$ be a closed surface of genus $g \geq 2$. We construct locally homogeneous geometric structures on closed 5-manifolds fibering over $S$, modeled on the two partial flag manifolds $\mathrm{Ein}^{2,3}$ and $\mathrm{Pho}^\times$ of the…

In the moduli space of semistable $\text{SL}(r, \mathbb{C})$-Higgs bundles, we show that there exists a sublocus of the upward flow through a polystable $\mathbb{C}^{*}$-fixed point, which is Lagrangian on its intersection with the stable…

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…

We set up a BNR correspondence for moduli spaces of Higgs bundles over a curve with a parabolic structure over any algebraically closed field. This leads to a concrete description of generic fibers of the associated strongly parabolic…

Interpreting certain holomorphic Lagrangians that arise from the relative Langlands program, we construct moduli stacks underlying the generalized Slodowy categories of Collier--Sanders and $G^\mathbf{R}$-Higgs bundles over a Riemann…

The geometric Langlands correspondence was described some years ago in terms of $S$-duality of $\N=4$ super Yang-Mills theory. Some additional matters relevant to this story are described here. The main goal is to explain directly why an…

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…

In this paper we give a complete description of the Hitchin fibration on all 2-dimensional moduli spaces of rank 2 irregular Higgs bundles with two poles on the projective line. We describe the dependence of the singular fibers of the…
