Paper studies convergence of Yang-Mills-Higgs flow on Kähler manifolds.

In this paper, we study semistable Higgs sheaves over compact Kähler manifolds, we prove that there is an approximate admissible Hermitian-Einstein structure on a semi-stable reflexive Higgs sheaf and consequently, the Bogomolove type inequality holds on a semi-stable reflexive Higgs sheaf.

We introduce the notion of $T$-stability for torsion-free Higgs sheaves as a natural generalization of the notion of $T$-stability for torsion-free coherent sheaves over compact complex manifolds. We prove similar properties to the classical ones for Higgs sheaves. In particular, we show that only saturated flags of to…

In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of the Hermitian-Yang-Mills flow on a reflexive sheaf. We prove that the limiting reflexive sheaf is isomorphic to the double dual of the graded sheaf associated to the Harder-Narasimhan-Seshadri filtration, this answers a question by Bando and Siu.

Characterizes stable sheaves for equality in orbifold BG inequality.

Study Higgs bundles on curves with punctures, extending spectral correspondence.

We study the basic properties of Higgs sheaves over compact Kähler manifolds and we establish some results concerning the notion of semistability; in particular, we show that any extension of semistable Higgs sheaves with equal slopes is semistable. Then, we use the flattening theorem to construct a regularization of a…

This is the first of a series of papers where we relate tangent cones of Hermitian-Yang-Mills connections at an isolated singularity to the complex algebraic geometry of the underlying reflexive sheaf, when the sheaf is locally modelled on the pull-back of a holomorphic vector bundle from the projective space. In this …

Ordinarily, quiver varieties are constructed as moduli spaces of quiver representations in the category of vector spaces. It is also natural to consider quiver representations in a richer category, namely that of vector bundles on some complex variety equipped with a fixed sheaf that twists the morphisms. Representatio…

Criterion for projectivisation on klt spaces, characterizing quotients and stability.

It is known that given a stable holomorphic pair $(E ,φ)$, where $E$ is a holomorphic vector bundle on a compact Kähler manifold $X$ and $φ$ is a holomorphic section of $E$, the vector bundle $E$ admits a Hermitian metric solving the vortex equation. We generalize this to pairs $(\E ,φ)$, where $\E$ is a reflexive shea…

We consider a version of Hermitian-Einstein equation but perturbed by a Higgs field with a solution called a Donaldson-Thomas instanton on compact Kähler threefolds. The equation could be thought of as a generalization of the Hitchin equation on Riemann surfaces to Kähler threefolds. In the appendix of arXiv:0805.2192,…

The paper studies coherent sheaves on subvarieties of Hopf manifolds.

In this paper, we consider the gradient flow of the Yang-Mills-Higgs functional for Higgs pairs on a Hermitian vector bundle $(E, H_{0})$ over a compact Kähler manifold $(M, ω)$. We study the asymptotic behavior of the Yang-Mills-Higgs flow for Higgs pairs at infinity, and show that the limiting Higgs sheaf is isomorph…

We give an example of a homogeneous reflexive sheaf over $\mathbb{C}^3$ which admits a non-conical Hermitian Yang-Mills connection. This is expected to model bubbling phenomenon along complex codimension 2 submanifolds when the Fueter section takes zero value.

We prove an analogue of the Donaldson-Uhlenbeck-Yau theorem for asymptotically cylindrical Kähler manifolds: If $\mathscr{E}$ is a reflexive sheaf over an ACyl Kähler manifold, which is asymptotic to a $μ$-stable holomorphic vector bundle, then it admits an asymptotically translation-invariant protectively Hermitian Ya…

In this paper we study the analytic tangent cones of admissible Hermitian-Yang-Mills connections near a homogeneous singularity of a reflexive sheaf, and relate it to the Harder-Narasimhan-Seshadri filtration. We also give an algebro-geometric characterization of the bubbling set. This strengthens our previous result.

We consider the gradient flow of the Yang-Mills-Higgs functional of twist Higgs pairs on a Hermitian vector bundle $(E,H_0)$ over a Riemann surface $X$. It is already known the gradient flow with initial data $(A_0,φ_0)$ converges to a critical point $(A_\infty, φ_\infty)$ of this functional. Using a modified Chern-Wei…

The paper studies foliations on smooth projective varieties and their properties.

The paper proves a key inequality for a specific type of complex spaces.

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over $\mathbb C$. We prove that a twisted Higgs vector bundle $(\calE\, ,θ)$ on $X$ admits an Einstein--Hermitian connection if and only if $(\calE\, ,θ)$ is polystable. A similar result for twisted vector bundles (no Higgs fields) was proved by S. Wang in \cite{Wa}. Our approach …

We introduce a weak concept of Morita equivalence, in the birational context, for Poisson modules on complex normal Poisson projective varieties. We show that Poisson modules, on projective varieties with mild singularities, are either rationally Morita equivalent to a flat partial holomorphic sheaf, or a sheaf with a …

Investigates admissible metrics on compact Kähler varieties and their stability.

On a complex manifold, a co-Higgs bundle is a holomorphic vector bundle with an endomorphism twisted by the tangent bundle. The notion of generalized holomorphic bundle in Hitchin's generalized geometry coincides with that of co-Higgs bundle when the generalized complex manifold is ordinary complex. Schwarzenberger's r…

New Poisson structures found on Higgs bundle moduli spaces.

We generalize the classical Beauville-Narasimhan-Ramanan correspondence to the case of parabolic Higgs bundles with regular singularities and Higgs $V$-bundles. Using this correspondence along with Bott-Morse theoretic techniques we provide an exact component count for moduli spaces of maximal parabolic $\text{Sp}\left…

The paper studies flow lines on Higgs bundle moduli spaces, classifying them via secant varieties.

The paper studies the locus in the rank 2 Higgs bundle moduli space corresponding to points which are critical for d of the Poisson commuting functions. These correspond to the Higgs field vanishing on a divisor of degree D. The degree D critical locus has an induced integrable system related to K(-D)-twisted Higgs bun…

We review the notions of (weak) Hermitian-Yang-Mills structure and approximate Hermitian-Yang-Mills structure for Higgs bundles. Then, we construct the Donaldson functional for Higgs bundles over compact Kähler manifolds and we present some basic properties of it. In particular, we show that its gradient flow can be wr…

By the work of Hong and Tian it is known that given a holomorphic vector bundle E over a compact Kahler manifold X, the Yang-Mills flow converges away from an analytic singular set. If E is semi-stable, then the limiting metric is Hermitian-Einstein and will decompose the limiting bundle into a direct sum of stable bun…

Let $X$ be a compact connected Riemann surface and $D$ an effective divisor on $X$. Let ${\mathcal N}_H(r,d)$ denote the moduli space of $D$-twisted stable Higgs bundles (a special class of Hitchin pairs) on $X$ of rank $r$ and degree $d$. It is known that ${\mathcal N}_H(r,d)$ has a natural holomorphic Poisson structu…

We construct master spaces for oriented torsion free sheaves coupled with morphisms into a fixed reference sheaf. These spaces are projective varieties endowed with a natural $\C^*$-action. The fixed point set of this action contains the moduli space of semistable oriented torsion free sheaves and the quot scheme assoc…

The paper classifies Lie algebroids and their connections, modulating principal objects.

Let $M$ be a hyperkaehler manifold, and $F$ a torsion-free and reflexive coherent sheaf on $M$. Assume that $F$ (outside of its singularities) admits a connection with a curvature which is invariant under the standard SU(2)-action on 2-forms. If the curvature is square-integrable, then $F$ is stable and its singulariti…

For the moduli space of Higgs bundles on a Riemann surface of positive genus, critical points of the natural Morse-Bott function lie along the nilpotent cone of the Hitchin fibration and are representations of $\mbox{A}$-type quivers in a twisted category of holomorphic bundles. The critical points that globally minimi…
