Abstract

Let Y be an integral projective complex curve. To representations of the topological fundamental group of Y in the general linear group, we associate generalised parabolic vector bundles and Hitchin pairs. We use this correspondence to study the vector bundles and Hitchin pairs on Y associated to representations of the fundamental group in case the curve has singularities of type \(A_{2s}, A_{2s-1}\) or ordinary s-points.
