I am asking about good references (both books and papers) for the well-known Borel–Weil theorem. Thank you very much!

    $\begingroup$ This question largely duplicates the earlier one on MO 13657. (Also, note the analytic approach in the 2002 AMS graduate text by J.L. Taylor on several complex variables etc.) $\endgroup$ Commented Feb 28, 2012 at 21:54
  • $\begingroup$ thank you very much for the AMS graduate text and the analytic approach. I have not noticed it before!I will check it $\endgroup$

Chapter II.5 in Jantzen's Representations of Algebraic Groups offers an algebraic treatment of this theorem.

  • $\begingroup$ If you're looking for Borel-Weil-Bott theory in positive characteristic, this book is definitely the best exposition I know of. $\endgroup$ Commented Feb 28, 2012 at 19:44
