Irreducibility of moduli of semi-stable chains and applications to U(P, q)-Higgs bundles

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for moduli spaces of semi-stable chains on a curve to be irreducible and non-empty. This gives information on the irreducible components of the nilpotent cone of GL n -Higgs bundles and the irreducible components of moduli of systems of Hodge bundles on cu...
