Abstract: Let G be a compact, connected, and simply-connected Lie group, equipped with an anti-involution aG which is the composition of a Lie group involutive automorphism sigmaG and the group inversion. We view (G,aG) as a Real (G,sigmaG)-space via the conjugation action. In this note, we exploit the notion of Real equivariant formality discussed in cite{Fo} to compute the ring structure of the equivariant KR-theory of G. In particular, we show that when G does not have Real representations of complex type, the equivariant KR-theory is the ring of Grothendieck differentials of the coefficient ring of equivariant KR-theory over the coefficient ring of ordinary KR-theory, thereby generalizing a result of Brylinski-Zhang's (cite{BZ}) for the complex K-theory case.
