Betti geometric Langlands conjecture

Let GG be a complex reductive group, let XX be a smooth complex projective curve, let GG^{\vee} be its Langlands dual group, and let LocG(X)\mathcal Loc_{G^{\vee}}(X) be the Betti moduli stack of GG^{\vee}-local systems. Let ShvN(BunG(X))\mathcal Shv_{\mathcal N}(Bun_G(X)) be the dg category of nilpotent sheaves, and let QCN!(LocG(X))\mathcal QC^!_{\mathcal N}(\mathcal Loc_{G^{\vee}}(X)) denote ind-coherent sheaves with nilpotent singular support. Betti geometric Langlands conjecture. There is an equivalence of dg categories

ShvN(BunG(X))QCN!(LocG(X))\mathcal Shv_{\mathcal N}(Bun_G(X))\simeq \mathcal QC^!_{\mathcal N}(\mathcal Loc_{G^{\vee}}(X))

compatible with actions of Hecke functors. It is the Betti analogue of the de Rham conjecture, replacing the de Rham moduli space by the topological character stack and the automorphic category by sheaves with nilpotent singular support.

  1. The Betti geometric Langlands conjecture

    Let GG be a reductive group, let \BunG\Bun_G denote the moduli stack of GG-bundles, and let \LS\cG\onBetti\LS^{\on{Betti}}_\cG be the Betti stack of local systems. Let \IndCoh\Nilp(\LS\cG\onBetti)\IndCoh_\Nilp(\LS^{\on{Betti}}_\cG) denote the category of ind-coherent sheaves with nilpotent singular support, and let

    \BLG\onBetti:\Shv12,\Nilp\onBetti(\BunG)\IndCoh\Nilp(\LS\cG\onBetti)\BL^{\on{Betti}}_G:\Shv^{\on{Betti}}_{\frac{1}{2},\Nilp}(\Bun_G)\to \IndCoh_\Nilp(\LS^{\on{Betti}}_\cG)

    be the continuous geometric Langlands functor characterized in the Betti context. The Betti geometric Langlands conjecture. The functor \BLG\onBetti\BL^{\on{Betti}}_G is an equivalence.

    This is the Betti formulation of geometric Langlands, originally formulated by D. Ben-Zvi and D. Nadler. The functor is constructed and shown to have the stated characterization, while the equivalence remains conjectural.
