We study horizontal deformations of a Higgs bundle whose spectral curve is smooth. It allows us to define a natural integrable connection of the Hitchin fibration on the locus where the spectral curves are smooth. Then, in the non-zero…
A local classification of the Hermitian manifolds with flat associated connection is given. Hermitian manifolds admitting locally a conformal metric with flat associated connection are characterized by a curvature identity. Locally…
Let $M$ be a $2n$-dimensional closed symplectic manifold admitting a Hamiltonian circle action with isolated fixed points. We show that if $M$ contains an $S^1$-invariant symplectic hypersurface $D$ such that $M\setminus D$ is a homology…
An effective family of spectral curves appearing in Hitchin fibrations is determined. Using this family the moduli spaces of stable Higgs bundles on an algebraic curve are embedded into the Sato Grassmannian. We show that the Hitchin…
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…
We extend the notion of Hitchin component from surface groups to orbifold groups and prove that this gives new examples of higher Teichm\"{u}ller spaces. We show that the Hitchin component of an orbifold group is homeomorphic to an open…
In this paper I construct, using off the shelf components, a compact symplectic manifold with a non-trivial Hamiltonian circle action that admits no Kaehler structure. The non-triviality of the action is guaranteed by the existence of an…
We construct a "Hitchin-type" connection on bundles of non-abelian theta functions on higher-rank Prym varieties, for unramified double covers of curves. We formulate a version of level-rank duality in this Prym setting (building on work of…
We suggest a way to quantize, using Berezin-Toeplitz quantization, a compact hyperkahler manifold (equipped with a natural 3-plectic form), or a compact integral Kahler manifold of complex dimension n regarded as a (2n-1)-plectic manifold.…
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…
The moduli space of stable Higgs bundles of degree $0$ is equipped with the hyperk\"ahler metric, called the Hitchin metric. On the locus where the spectral curves are smooth, there is the hyperk\"ahler metric called the semi-flat metric,…
In this article, we construct a flat degeneration of the derived moduli stack of Higgs bundles on smooth curves using the stack of expanded degenerations of Jun Li. We show that there is an intrinsic relative log-symplectic form on the…
We present a general theory of non-perturbative quantization of a class of hermitian symmetric supermanifolds. The quantization scheme is based on the notion of a super Toeplitz operator on a suitable Z_2 -graded Hilbert space of…
This article contains a compression of results from alg-geom/9501001, with most proofs omitted. We prove that every two points of the connected moduli space of holomorphically symplectic manifolds can be connected with so-called ``twistor…
We study the asymptotic hyperk\"ahler geometry of the $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{C})$-Hitchin moduli space over the singular fibers of the Hitchin fibration. We extend the previously known exponential convergence results for solutions to the…
For manifolds $\cal M$ of noncompact type endowed with an affine connection (for example, the Levi-Civita connection) and a closed 2-form (magnetic field) we define a Hilbert algebra structure in the space $L^2(T^*\cal M)$ and construct an…
We generalize the topological recursion of Eynard-Orantin (2007) to the family of spectral curves of Hitchin fibrations. A spectral curve in the topological recursion, which is defined to be a complex plane curve, is replaced with a generic…
We consider the moduli space of vector bundles of rank $n$ and degree $ng$ over a fixed Riemann surface of genus $g\geq 2$. We use the explicit parametrization in terms of the Tyurin data. In the moduli space there is a "non-abelian" Theta…
We solve the problem of describing all nonlocal Hamiltonian operators of hydrodynamic type with flat metrics. This problem is also equivalent to the description of all flat submanifolds with flat normal bundle in a pseudo-Euclidean space.…
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…
