Abstract: We study the locus of the moduli space of Higgs bundles on a curve given by those Higgs bundles obtained by pushforward under an unramified cover. We equip these loci with a hyperholomorphic bundle so that they can be viewed as BBB-branes, and we introduce corresponding BAA-branes which can be described via Hecke modifications. We then show how these branes are naturally dual via explicit Fourier--Mukai transform, where we recall that the structure group $mathrmGL(n,mathbbC)$ is Langlands self dual. It is noteworthy that these branes lie over the singular locus of the Hitchin fibration. As a particular case, our construction describes the behaviour under mirror symmetry of the fixed loci for the action of tensorization by a line bundle of order $n$. These loci play a key role in the work of Hausel and Thaddeus on topological mirror symmetry for Higgs moduli spaces.
