Popis: Let $X$ be a smooth, projective, and geometrically connected curve defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ and $S\subseteq X$ a subset of closed points. Let $\bar{X}$ and $\bar{S}$ be their base changes to an algebraic closure of $\mathbb{F}_q$. We study the number of $\ell$-adic local systems in rank $2$ over $\bar{X}-\bar{S}$ with prescribed tame local monodromies fixed by $k$-fold iterated action of Frobenius endomorphism for every $k\geq 1$. We confirm some conjectures of Deligne predicting that these numbers behave as if they were obtained from a Lefschetz fixed point formula. In fact, in all cases, our counting results are expressed in terms of the numbers of some Higgs bundles.
