Untwisting the twisted character variety via a stacky curve

Abstract

Given a smooth projective curve X over β„‚, we show that the twisted character variety of X is equivalent to a component of the character variety of a stacky curve 𝒳, constructed by adding an orbifold point to X. This allows to interpret the non abelian Hodge correspondence in degree d over X as a statement about the geometry of the Hodge moduli space of Ξ»-connections on 𝒳. Following Shende's approach (see arXiv:1411.4975), we exploit this interpretation to compute the weights of the tautological classes on the cohomology of the twisted character variety, by replacing 𝒳 with a simplicial scheme Δ𝒳 obtained from a triangulation.
