Abstract:In this article, we study the image of the Hitchin morphism for some classical groups over an algebraic surface. The Hitchin morphism is a map from the moduli stack of $G$-Higgs bundles $\mathscr{M}_{X,G}$ to the Hitchin base $\mathscr{A}_{X,G}$, where $X$ is a smooth projective variety. In general, this morphism is not surjective when the dimension of $X$ is greater than one. Chen and Ng{ô} showed that the Hitchin morphism factors through a closed subscheme $\mathscr{B}_{X,G}$ of the Hitchin base, which is called the spectral base. They conjectured that the image of the Hitchin morphism is exactly the spectral base. When $X$ is a smooth projective surface, we prove that this conjecture holds for the special linear algebraic group of odd rank. We also confirm this conjecture for the classical groups ${\rm SL}_n$ and ${\rm Sp}_{2n}$ when $X$ is a product of smooth curves.
