In this article, we construct the Hitchin fibration for groups following the scheme outlined by Frenkel-Ngo in the case of SL2. This construction uses as a decisive tool the Vinberg's semigroup. The total space of Hitchin is obtained by taking the fiber product of the Hecke stack with the diagonal of the stack of G-bundles BunG; we prove a transversality statement between the intersection complex of the Hecke stack and the diagonal of BunG, over a sufficiently big open subset, in order to get local applications, such that the fundamental lemma for the spherical Hecke algebra. Along the proof of this theorem, we establish a result concerning the integral conjugacy classes of the points of a simply connected group in a local field.
