Let $\\mathcal{G}$ be a Bruhat-Tits group scheme on $X$ which is generically semi-simple and trivial. We show that the \\'etale fundamental group of the moduli stack $\\mathcal{M}_X(\\mathcal{G})$ of torsors under $\\mathcal{G}$ is isomorphic to that of the moduli stack $\\mathcal{M}_X(G)$ of principal $G$-bundles. For any smooth, noetherian and irreducible stack $\\mathcal{X}$, we show that an inclusion of an open substack $\\mathcal{X}^\\circ$, whose complement has codimension at least two, will induce an isomorphism of \\'etale fundamental group. Over $\\mathbb{C}$, we show that the open substack of regularly stable torsors in $\\mathcal{M}_X(\\mathcal{G})$ has complement of codimension at least two when $g_X \\geq 3$. As an application, we show that the moduli space $M_X(\\mathcal{G})$ of $\\mathcal{G}$-torsors is simply-connected.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-11-07T11:35:52.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14F22", "14D23", "14D20" ], "keywords": [ "etale fundamental group", "bruhat-tits group scheme", "moduli stack", "open substack", "smooth projective curve" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
