Abstract We study an algebraic inequality for nilpotent matrices and show some interesting geometric applications: (i) obtaining topological information for nilpotent polystable Higgs bundles over a compact Riemann surface; (ii) obtaining a sharp upper bound of the holomorphic sectional curvatures of the period domain and the Hodge metric on the Calabi–Yau moduli.

Given a compact Riemann surface X and a semi-simple affine algebraic group G defined over C, there are moduli spaces of Higgs bundles and of connections associated to (X, G). The chapter computes the Brauer group of the smooth locus of these varieties.

Birational Equivalence

In this paper, we study triples of the form (E, θ, ϕ) over a compact Riemann surface, where (E, θ) is a Higgs bundle and ϕ is a global holomorphic section of the Higgs bundle. Our main result is an description of a birational equivalence which relates geometrically the moduli space of Higgs bundles of rank r and degree d to the moduli space of Higgs bundles of rank r-1 and degree d.

Abstract For $G = \mathrm {GL}_2, \mathrm {SL}_2, \mathrm {PGL}_2$ we compute the intersection E-polynomials and the intersection Poincaré polynomials of the G-character variety of a compact Riemann surface C and of the moduli space of G-Higgs bundles on C of degree zero. We derive several results concerning the P=W conjectures for these singular moduli spaces.

Eichler Cohomology

We make a detailed study of the generalized modular forms of weight zero and their associated multiplier systems (characters) on an arbitrary subgroup Γ of finite index in the modular group. Among other things, we show that every generalized divisor on the compact Riemann surface associated to Γ is the divisor of a modular form (with unitary character) which is unique up to scalars. This extends a result of Petersson, and has applications to the Eichler cohomology.

Reductive Lie Group

This chapter explains the correspondence between local systems on a punctured Riemann surface with the structure group being a real reductive Lie group G, and parabolic G-Higgs bundles. The chapter describes the objects involved in this correspondence, taking some time to motivate them by recalling the definitions of G-Higgs bundles without parabolic structure and of parabolic vector bundles. Finally, it explains the relevant polystability condition and the correspondence between local systems and Higgs bundles.

In (4) G. Lewittes proved some theorems connecting automorphisms of a compact Riemann surface with the Weierstrass points of the surface, and in (5) he applied these results to elliptic modular functions. We refer the reader to these papers for definitions and details. It is our purpose in this note to point out that these results are of a purely algebraic nature, valid in arbitrary algebraic function fields of one variable over algebraically closed ground fields (with an obvious restriction on the characteristic). We shall also make use of the calculation carried out in (5) to obtain a rather easy extension of a theorem proved in (6, p. 312).
