(I apologize in advance for the vagueness of my question). Let $G$ be a reductive algebraic group over $\mathbb C$ with Lie algebra $\frak g$ and Borel $B$. I have seen casual references to the fact that relative Lie algebra cohomology (sometimes also called cohomology of a pair) with coefficients in a $B$-module $V$ is, with the right choice of pair of Lie algebras, isomorphicrelated to sheaf cohomology of $G/B$ with coefficients in $V$. Is there a reference for this fact, and is there a precise statement one can make? In particular, which Lie algebras should one use? (My guess would be the pair $(\frak b, \frak h)$, where $\frak b := $ Lie($B$) and $\frak h$ is a Cartan of $\frak b$).

Relative Lie Algebra cohomology and sheaf cohomology
