Real Structures on Root Stacks and Parabolic Connections

Sujoy Chakraborty, Arjun Paul

TL;DR

This work develops a real-structure framework for root stacks and parabolic connections. It proves that a smooth complex variety X with a real structure Οƒ and a real sncd D induces a compatible real structure on the r-th root stack 𝔛 of (π’ͺ_X(D), s_D), and establishes an equivalence between real parabolic vector bundles on (X, D) and real vector bundles on (𝔛, Οƒ_𝔛), as well as between real logarithmic connections on (𝔛, 𝔇) and real parabolic connections on (X, D) with weights in $\frac{1}{r}\mathbb{Z}$; holomorphic real connections on 𝔛 correspond to real strongly parabolic connections on (X, D). The results unify real-structure considerations with Biswas-Borne correspondences and extend the parabolic-connection paradigm to real algebraic geometry, including a quotient-stack/Galois-cover perspective via Kawamata-type covers. Altogether, the paper provides a robust stack-theoretic bridge between real parabolic data and root-stack connections, enhancing tools for real nonabelian Hodge-type correspondences in higher dimensions.

Abstract

Let $D$ be a reduced effective strict normal crossing divisor on a smooth complex variety $X$, and let $\mathfrak{X}_D$ be an associated root stack over $\mathbb C$. Suppose that $X$ admits an anti-holomorphic involution (real structure) that keeps $D$ invariant. We show that the root stack $\mathfrak{X}_D$ naturally admits a real structure compatible with $X$. We also establish an equivalence of categories between the category of real logarithmic connections on this root stack and the category of real parabolic connections on $X$.
