Hodge numbers of moduli of principal bundles on a curve

Abstract

We prove an inversion theorem for recursive formulas satisfied by certain families of converging power series in two variables. These power series are indexed by the Harder-Narasimhan types of principal $G$-bundles of degree $d\in {\pi }_{1}G$ on a smooth projective curve $X$, where $G$ is a connected complex reductive group. As an application, we obtain a closed formula for the Hodge-Poincaré series of moduli stacks of semistable principal $G$-bundles of degree $d$. We also compute the variation of Hodge structure of the moduli stack of all principal $G$-bundles over $X$, as a function of the period matrix of that curve.
