minus four points and its possible relation with the |${{\mathbb{Z}}}$|-lattice structure of the
associated uniformizing representation of |$\pi _{1}$|. In this article, we explore further into
this connection for smooth projective curves. … Property (ii) is predicted by the
aforementioned polystability conjecture, because polystable Higgs bundles over elliptic
curves must be direct sums of line bundles, and we show that, over any smooth projective …
