Mar 22, 2010 at 20:26 comment added Jim Humphreys Demazure's approach is certainly the most useful from the viewpoint of algebraic geometry in characteristic 0, but the related questions in characteristic $p>0$ remain to a large extent open and are natural follow-ups. As George indicates, Jantzen's book provides access to such questions in a unified framework. Andersen got started on his own work partly by exploring how Demazure's set-up might be adapted to characteristic $p$. But a full analogue of Bott's theorem probably requires some creative use of Kazhdan-Lusztig theory for the affine Weyl group.
