Via hyperk\\\"ahler rotation, this may equivalently be viewed as the identification of an SYZ fibration relating Hitchin systems for arbitrary Langlands dual semisimple groups, coupled to nontrivial finite $B$-fields. As a corollary certain self-dual stacks $\\frac{\\mathcal{M}_{\\mathfrak{g}}(C)}{\\Gamma}$ are observed to exist, which I conjecture to be the Coulomb branches for the 3d reduction of the 4d $\\mathcal{N}=2$ theories of class $\\mathcal{S}$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-10-01T19:29:55.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14D24" ], "keywords": [ "higgs bundles", "stacky dualities", "arbitrary langlands dual semisimple groups", "syz fibration relating hitchin systems" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 32, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
