Let $X$ be a compact Riemann surface $X$ of genus at--least two. Fix a holomorphic line bundle $L$ over $X$. Let $mathcal M$ be the moduli space of Hitchin pairs $(E ,phiin H^0(End(E)otimes L))$ over $X$ of rank $r$ and fixed determinant of degree $d$. We prove that, for some numerical conditions, $mathcal M$ is irreducible, and that the isomorphism class of the variety $mathcal M$ uniquely determines the isomorphism class of the Riemann surface $X$.
A conjectural recursive relation for the Poincare polynomial of the Hitchin moduli space is derived from wallcrossing in the refined local Donaldson-Thomas theory of a curve. A doubly refined generalization of this theory is also conjectured and shown to similarly determine the Hodge polynomial of the same moduli space.
We show that the Brauer group of any moduli space of stable pairs with fixed determinant over a curve is zero.
We generalize the construction of a moduli space of semistable pairs parametrizing isomorphism classes of morphisms from a fixed coherent sheaf to any sheaf with fixed Hilbert polynomial under a notion of stability to the case of projective Deligne-Mumford stacks. We study the deformation and obstruction theories of stable pairs, and then prove the existence of virtual fundamental classes for some cases of dimension two and three. This leads to a definition of Pandharipande-Thomas invariants on three-dimensional smooth projective Deligne-Mumford stacks.
We provide a construction of the moduli spaces of framed Hitchin pairs and their master spaces. These objects have come to interest as algebra
Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve of genus $ggeq 2$ over the complex numbers. A holomorphic triple $(E_1,E_2,phi)$ on $X$ consists of two holomorphic vector bundles $E_1$ and $E_2$ over $X$ and a holomorphic map $phi:E_2 to E_1$. There is a concept of stability for triples which depends on a real parameter $sigma$. In this paper, we determine the Hodge polynomials of the moduli spaces of $sigma$-stable triples with $rk(E_1)=3$, $rk(E_2)=1$, using the theory of mixed Hodge structures. This gives in particular the Poincare polynomials of these moduli spaces. As a byproduct, we recover the Hodge polynomial of the moduli space of odd degree rank 3 stable vector bundles.
