Abstract: Let mathcalC be a smooth irreducible projective curve over the complex numbers and let G be a simple simply-connected complex algebraic group. Let mathfrakM=mathfrakM(G,mathcalC) be the moduli space of semistable principal G-bundles on mathcalC. By an earlier result of Kumar-Narasimhan, the Picard group of mathfrakM is isomorphic with the group of integers. However, in their work the generator of the Picard group was not determined explicitly. The aim of this paper to give the generator `explicitly.' The proof involves an interesting mix of geometry and topology.
