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…

The goal of this paper is to give a new proof of a special case of the Kodaira-Saito vanishing theorem for a variation of Hodge structure on the complement of a divisor with normal crossings. The proof does not use the theory of mixed Hodge…

We compute odd-degree genus 1 quasimap (and Gromov--Witten) invariants of moduli spaces of Higgs $\mathrm{SL}_2$-bundles on a curve of genus $g\geq2$. We also compute certain invariants for all prime ranks. This proves some parts of…

Higgs boson decays in flexible brane world models with stable, massive gravi-vectors are considered. Such vectors couple bilinearly to the Standard Model fields through either the Standard Model energy-momentum tensor, the weak hypercharge…

We examine distinctive signatures of Quantum Critical Higgs models at the LHC and future higher energy colliders. In these models the Higgs boson is part of a conformal sector that is softly broken at a threshold scale, and generically the…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective complex curve, $P\subset X$ a reduced effective divisor, and $X^{0}=X\setminus P$. We study logarithmic $V$-twisted Higgs bundles arising from a logarithmic Hecke compactification of a rank-two bundle on…

We classify the connected components of the space of representations of the fundamental group of a closed oriented surface of genus $\geq 2$ in $Sp(4,{\mathbf R})$. We prove that this is equivalent to classifying the connected components of…

We study the locus of the moduli space of Higgs bundles on a curve given by those Higgs bundles obtained by pushforward under an unramified cover. We equip these loci with a hyperholomorphic bundle so that they can be viewed as BBB-branes,…

Using the Morse-theoretic techniques introduced by Hitchin, we prove that the moduli space of $\Sp(2p,2q)$-Higgs bundles over a compact Riemann surface of genus $g\geq 2$ is connected. In particular, this implies that the moduli space of…

The moduli space of stable bundles of rank 2 and degree 1 on a Riemann surface has rational cohomology generated by the so-called universal classes. The work of Baranovsky, King-Newstead, Siebert-Tian and Zagier provided a complete set of…

The main result of this paper is a construction of solutions to the reverse Yang-Mills-Higgs flow converging in the $C^\infty$ topology to a critical point. The construction uses only the complex gauge group action, which leads to an…

We study a holographic gauge theory dual to the D3/D5 intersection. We consider a pure gauge B-field flux through the internal two-sphere wrapped by the probe D5--brane, which corresponds to a non-commutative configuration of adjoint…

We study resolutions of the rational map to the moduli space of stable curves that associates with a point in the Hitchin base the spectral curve. In the rank two case the answer is given in terms of the space of quadratic multi-scale…

We construct the dual supergravity description of strongly coupled, large $N$, eight-supercharge gauge theories with fundamental hypermultiplets at points on the mixed Coulomb-Higgs branch. With certain assumptions about unknown couplings…

We describe here a degeneration of the symplectic desingularization of the moduli spaces of topologically trivial $GL(2,\mathbb{C})$ and $SL(2,\mathbb{C})$-Higgs bundles over a hyperelliptic curve, into O'Grady's ten and six dimensional…

Let \(X\) be an irreducible smooth complex projective variety, and let \(G\) be a connected reductive linear algebraic group over \(\mathbb{C}\). In this paper, we first classify integrable transitive algebraic Lie algebroids on $X$. We…

This paper provides an introduction to non-abelian Hodge theory and moduli spaces of Higgs bundles on compact Riemann surfaces. We develop the moduli theory of vector bundles and Higgs bundles, establish the main correspondences of…

We use abelianization of Higgs bundles away from the ramification divisor and fiducial solutions to analyze the large scale behaviour of Fenchel--Nielsen co-ordinates on the moduli space of rank $2$ Higgs bundles on the Riemann sphere with…

The twistor space of representations on an open variety maps to a weight two space of local monodromy transformations around a divisor component at infinty. The space of $\sigma$-invariant sections of this slope-two bundle over the twistor…

Fix a $C^\infty$ principal $G$--bundle $E^0_G$ on a compact connected Riemann surface $X$, where $G$ is a connected complex reductive linear algebraic group. We consider the gradient flow of the Yang--Mills--Higgs functional on the…
