Hecke cycles associated to rank 2 twisted Higgs bundles on a curve

Let [Formula: see text] be a smooth complex projective curve of genus [Formula: see text] and let [Formula: see text] be a line bundle on [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text]. Let [Formula: see text] be the moduli space of semistable rank 2 [Formula: see text]-twisted Higgs bundles with trivial determinant on [Formula: see text]. Let [Formula: see text] be the moduli space of stable rank 2 [Formula: see text]-twisted Higgs bundles with determinant [Formula: see text] for some [Formula: see text] on [Formula: see text]. We construct a cycle in the product of a stack of rational maps from nonsingular curves to [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] by using Hecke modifications of a stable [Formula: see text]-twisted Higgs bundle in [Formula: see text].
