Tangency and a ruled surface associated with a Hitchin system
arXiv:1108.5243
Abstract
We will generalize the Treibich-Verdier theory about elliptic solitons to a Hitchin system by constructing a particular ruled surface and we will propose a generalization of a tangency condition associated with elliptic solitons to a Hitchin system. In particular, we will calculate the dimension of the moduli space of Hitchin covers satisfying the tangency condition. With this new point of view, we will see a subtle relation between the characterizations of coverings and the singularities of divisors in a particular algebraic surface.
