The aim of this paper is to introduce the notion of semistable and stable parahoric torsors under a certain Bruhat-Tits group scheme $\\mathcal G$ and construct the moduli space of semistable parahoric $\\mathcal G$--torsors; we also identify the underlying topological space of this moduli space with certain spaces of homomorphisms of Fuchsian groups into a maximal compact subgroup of $G$. The results give a generalization of the earlier results of Mehta and Seshadri on parabolic vector bundles. This is the final version of the accepted paper.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2012-11-05T17:09:04.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "compact riemann surface", "simply connected algebraic group", "moduli space", "parabolic vector bundles", "irreducible smooth projective algebraic curve" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 41, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010arXiv1009.3485B" } } }
