Abstract Kazhdan and Lusztig identified the affine Hecke algebra ℋ with an equivariant$$K$$ $K$-group of the Steinberg variety, and applied this to prove the Deligne-Langlands conjecture, i.e., the local Langlands parametrization of irreducible representations of reductive groups over nonarchimedean local fields$$F$$ $F$with an Iwahori-fixed vector. We apply techniques from derived algebraic geometry to pass from$$K$$ $K$-theory to Hochschild homology and thereby identify ℋ with the endomorphisms of a coherent sheaf on the stack of unipotent Langlands parameters, thecoherent Springer sheaf. As a result the derived category of ℋ-modules is realized as a full subcategory of coherent sheaves on this stack, confirming expectations from strong forms of the local Langlands correspondence (including recent conjectures of Fargues-Scholze, Hellmann and Zhu). In the case of the general linear group our result allows us to lift the local Langlands classification of irreducible representations to a categorical statement: we construct a full embedding of the derived category of smooth representations of$$\mathrm{GL}_{n}(F)$$ ${\mathrm{GL}}_n\left(F\right)$into coherent sheaves on the stack of Langlands parameters. 

Introduces and surveys a Betti form of the geometric Langlands conjecture, parallel to the de Rham form developed by Beilinson-Drinfeld and Arinkin-Gaitsgory, and the Dolbeault form of Donagi-Pantev, and inspired by the work of Kapustin-Witten in supersymmetric gauge theory.
