Abstract
We will explain an approach to the computation of the cohomology of moduli spaces of Higgs bundles on surfaces, that is closely related to the argument of Harder-Narasimhan for moduli spaces of vector bundles and give an application to the middle cohomology of the moduli space of SL_n Higgs bundles. This is joint work with O. Garcia-Prada and A. Schmitt.
