In this article, we study the deformation theory of locally free sheaves and Hitchin pairs over a nodal curve. As a special case, the infinitesimal deformation of these objects gives the tangent space of the corresponding moduli spaces, which can be used to calculate the dimension of the corresponding moduli space. The deformation theory of locally free sheaves and Hitchin pairs over a nodal curve can be interpreted as the deformation theory of generalized parabolic bundles and generalized parabolic Hitchin pairs over the normalization of the nodal curve, respectively. This interpretation is given by the correspondence between locally free sheaves over a nodal curve and generalized parabolic bundles over its normalization.

We describe the moduli space of Higgs pairs on an irreducible nodal curve of arithmetic genus one and its geometric structures in terms of the Hitchin map and a flat degeneration of the moduli space of Higgs bundles on an elliptic curve.
