Abstract

Over a family $\mathbb X$ of genus $g$ complete curves, which gives the degeneration of a smooth curve into one with nodal singularities, we build a moduli space which is the moduli space of ${\rm SL}(n, \mathbb C)$ bundles over the generic smooth curve $X_t$ in the family, and is a moduli space of bundles equipped with extra structure at the nodes for the nodal curves in the family. This moduli space is a quotient by $(\mathbb C^*)^s$ of a moduli space on the desingularisation. Taking a "maximal" degeneration of the curve into a nodal curve built from the glueing of three-pointed spheres, we obtain a degeneration of the moduli space of bundles into a $(\mathbb C^*)^{(3g-3)(n-1)}$-quotient of a $(2g-2)$-th power of a space associated to the three-pointed sphere. Via the Narasimhan-Seshadri theorem, the moduli of bundles on the smooth curve is a space of representations of the fundamental group into ${\rm SU}(n)$ (the "symplectic picture"). We obtain the degenerations also in this symplectic context, in a way that is compatible with the holomorphic degeneration, so that our limit space is also a $(S^1)^{(3g-3)(n-1)}$ symplectic quotient of a $(2g-2)$-th power of a space associated to the three-pointed sphere.

Shrinking dynamic on multidimensional tropical series

Let $Ω\subset\mathbb R^n$ be a compact convex domain. An $Ω$-tropical series is a nonnegative, concave, integral-slope, piecewise-affine function on $Ω$ that vanishes on $\partialΩ$. For a finite set $P\subsetΩ^\circ$, we study the least such function above prescribed initial data whose corner locus contains $P$. It is obtained by repeatedly applying one-point shrinking operators $G_p$. We prove that every fair order of these operators stabilizes after finitely many nontrivial steps. We also describe an event-driven implementation that records the lowest monomials at each point and updates only affected watcher lists. Finally, we show that, on every compact subset of $Ω^\circ$, the resulting dynamics can be approximated by a finite path whose intermediate tropical hypersurfaces have only mild singularities on that compact set; equivalently, the corresponding local cells of the dual regular subdivision contain no lattice points other than their vertices.

A stacky $p$-adic Riemann--Hilbert correspondence on Hitchin-small locus

Let $C$ be an algebraically closed perfectoid field over $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with the ring of integer $\mathcal{O}_C$ and the infinitesimal thickening $\Ainf$. Let $\mathfrak X$ be a semi-stable formal scheme over $\mathcal{O}_C$ with a fixed flat lifting $\widetilde{\mathfrak X}$ over $\Ainf$. Let $X$ be the generic fiber of $\mathfrak{X}$ and $\widetilde X$ be its lifting over $\BdRp$ induced by $\widetilde{\mathfrak X}$. Let $\MIC_r(\widetilde X)^{{\rm H}\text{-small}}$ and $\rL\rS_r(X,\BBdRp)^{{\rm H}\text{-small}}$ be the $v$-stacks of rank-$r$ Hitchin-small integrable connections on $X_{\et}$ and $\BBdRp$-local systems on $X_{v}$, respectively. In this paper, we establish an equivalence between these two stacks by introducing a new period sheaf with connection $(\calO\bB_{\dR,\pd}^+,\rd)$ on $X_{v}$.

A refinement of the coherence conjecture of Pappas and Rapoport

The coherence conjecture of Pappas and Rapoport, proved by Zhu, asserts the equality of dimensions for the global sections of a line bundle over a spherical Schubert variety in the affine Grassmannian and those of another line bundle over a certain union of Schubert varieties in a partial affine flag variety. We refine this equality of dimensions to an isomorphism of representations. The comparison is established by introducing a parahoric Bruhat-Tits group scheme $\mathcal{G}$ over the affine line, ramified at 0. We further strengthen this comparison by equipping any line bundle on the global Schubert variety of $\mathcal{G}$ with a unique equivariant structure under the global jet group scheme. As an application, we obtain new relations among affine Demazure modules.
