Abstract

For a certain class of real analytic varieties with Lie group actions, we develop a theory of (free-monodromic) tilting sheaves, and apply it to flag varieties stratified by real group orbits. For quasi-split real groups, we construct a fully faithful embedding of the category of tilting sheaves to a real analog of the category of Soergel bimodules, establishing real group analogs of Soergel’s structure theorem and the endomorphism theorem. We apply these results to give a purely geometric proof of the main result of Bezrukavnikov and Vilonen [Koszul duality for quasi-split real groups, Invent. Math. 226 (2021), 139–193], which proves Soergel’s conjecture [Langlands’ philosophy and Koszul duality, in Algebra – representation theory (Constanta, 2000), NATO Science Series II: Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry, vol. 28 (Kluwer Academic Publishers, Dordrecht, 2001), 379–414] for quasi-split groups.
