Algebraic Nahm transform for parabolic Higgs (Q477450): Difference between revisions

Let \(D\) be a fixed effective divisor on \(\mathbb{P}^1\). A parabolic Higgs bundle is a pair \((E, \theta)\) where \(E\) is a vector bundle on the projective line and the Higgs field \(\theta: E \to E \otimes E(D)\) is a sheaf homomorphism, together with a parabolic structure at each point of \(D\) (compatible with \(\theta\)). \textit{S. Szabó} [Mém. Soc. Math. Fr., Nouv. Sér. 110, 1--114 (2007; Zbl 1213.53005)] defined analytically a Nahm transform for parabolic Higgs bundles on the complex projective line with a Hermitian-Einstein metric satisfying some semisimplicity and admissibility conditions. These parabolic Higgs bundles had an irregular singularity at the point at infinity and at most regular singularities at other parabolic points. In this paper, Aker and Szabó construct an algebraic Nahm transform on parabolic Higgs bundles extending its scope, the parabolic Higgs bundles are allowed to have poles of arbitrary order and arbitrary behaviour. The transform respects parabolic structure if an admissibility condition is satisfied which says that at a parabolic point \(p\), either there is no jump corresponding to weight \(0\) (i.e. \(0\) is not a weight) or otherwise (if \(0\) is a weight) the jump is prescribed by the residue of \(\theta\) at \(p\). They show that the Nahm transform is involutive up to a sign. They prove that it preserves parabolic degree and for Higgs bundles of degree \(0\), it preserves stability. Finally they prove that it induces a Kähler isometry between the corresponding Dolbeault moduli spaces.
