Abstract: We explore a strong categorical correspondence between isomorphism classes of sheaves of arbitrary rank on a given algebraic curve and twisted pairs on another algebraic curve, mostly from a linear-algebraic standpoint. In a particular application, we realize a generic elliptic curve as a spectral cover of the complex projective line $\mathbb{P}^1$ and then construct examples of cyclic pairs and co-Higgs bundles over $\mathbb{P}^1$. By appealing to a composite push-pull projection formula, we conjecture an iterated version of spectral correspondence. We prove this conjecture for a particular class of spectral covers of $\mathbb {P}^1$ through Galois-theoretic arguments. The proof relies upon a classification of Galois groups into primitive and imprimitive types. In this context, we revisit a classical theorem of Ritt.
