Endoscopy for metaplectic affine Hecke categories

Abstract

For a possibly twisted loop group LGLG, and any character sheaf of its Iwahori subgroup, we identify the associated affine Hecke category with a combinatorial category of Soergel bimodules. In fact, we prove such results for affine Hecke categories arising from central extensions of the loop group LGLG. Our results work for mod \ell or integral \ell-adic coefficients. As applications, we obtain endoscopic equivalences between affine Hecke categories, including the derived Satake equivalence for metaplectic groups, and a series of conjectures by Gaitsgory in quantum geometric Langlands.
