Abstract

The talk is on a joint work with I-Hsun Tsai. We prove an identification theorem between the first direct image of sheaves on curves and the sheaves of differential operators on moduli spaces of vector bundles on the curves. As an application, we give a new construction of Hitchin's connection on the moduli space of curves with level structures, which has a natural extension to the boundary of certain singular stable curves.
