The $r$-matrix structure on the moduli space of framed Higgs pairs

On the space of matrices with rational (trigonometric/elliptic) entries there is a well-known Lie-Poisson $r$-matrix structure. The known $r$-matrices are defined on the Riemann sphere (rational), the cylinder (trigonometric), or the torus (elliptic). We extend the formalism to the case of a Riemann surface $\mathcal{C}$ of higher genus $g$: we consider the moduli space of framed vector bundles of rank $n$ and degree $ng$, where the framing consists in a choice of basis of $n$ independent holomorphic sections chosen to trivialize the fiber at a given point $\mathrm{\infty }\in \mathcal{C}$. The co-tangent space is known to be identified with the set of Higgs fields, i.e., one-forms on $\mathcal{C}$ with values in the endomorphisms of the vector bundle, with an additional simple pole at $\mathrm{\infty }$. The natural symplectic structure on the co-tangent bundle of the moduli space induces a Poisson structure on the Higgs fields. The result is then an explicit $r$–matrix that generalizes the known ones. A detailed discussion of the elliptic case with comparison to the literature is also provided.
