๐ธ1-connectedness of moduli of semistable bundles and symplectic bundles on a curve
Abstract
In this note, we show that over a geometrically irreducible smooth projective curve over an infinite field k, the moduli stack of semistable vector bundles of fixed determinant is ๐ธ1-connected if and only if the moduli stack admits a k-rational point. For this we use Langton's elementary modifications for vector bundles at the level of families. In addition, we prove the ๐ธ1-connectedness of the moduli stack of symplectic bundles with forms valued in a fixed line bundle L on a smooth projective curve of genus g โฅ 2 over an infinite field k with C(k)โ โ . As an application, we deduce the ๐ธ1-connectedness of moduli stack of quasi-parabolic symplectic vector bundles with forms valued in a fixed line bundle.
