Simplicity of stable principal sheaves

Let M be a compact connected Kähler manifold, and let Gbe a connected complex reductive linear algebraic group. Weprove that a principal G-sheaf on M admits an admissible Einstein–Hermitianconnection if and only if the principal G-sheaf is polystable.Using this it is shown that the holomorphic sections of theadjoint vector bundle of a stable principal G-sheaf on M aregiven by the center of the Lie algebra of G. The Bogomolov inequalityis shown to be valid for polystable principal G-sheaves.
