Brauer group of moduli of principal bundles over a curve

Abstract

Let $G$ be a semisimple linear algebraic group over the field $\mathbb{C}$, and let $C$ be an irreducible smooth complex projective curve of genus at least three. We compute the Brauer group of the smooth locus of the moduli space of semistable principal $G$--bundles over $C$. We also compute the Brauer group of the moduli stack of principal $G$--bundles over $C$.
