Central Yang-Mills connections, and flat connections with prescribed holonomy
Let $X$ be $\Sigma^g$ which is the Riemann surface of genus $g$, and consider a trivial $G$-bundle over it.
1) In this $2$-d setting, the space of Yang-Mills central connections is the set of ...

Infinitely many nonempty Seiberg-Witten moduli spaces
The classic "finiteness" statement in Seiberg-Witten (SW) theory is that, for any smooth closed connected 4-manifold, there are only finitely many spin-c structures with nontrivial SW ...

A question about the book "the geometry and dynamics of magnetic monopoles"
In chapter 2 of the book "The geometry and dynamics of magnetic monopoles", by M.F. Atiyah and N.J. Hitchin (the chapter is called "Geometry of the monopole spaces"), it is written:...

Geometry of the complex Gauge group
Let $E\rightarrow X$ be holomorphic vector bundle on a complex manifold $X$. Denote by $\mathcal{G}=\Gamma(Aut(E))$ the group of complex smooth automorphisms of $E$.
Is there a way to endow $\...

On the Hitchin fibration
I will refer to Simpson's "Higgs bundles and local systems".
Proposition 1.4:
When $X$ is a smooth projective variety, one can build up the moduli space $\mathcal{M}(X,r)$ of rank $r$ Higgs ...
