Abstract: In this manuscript we consider the extent to which an irreducible representation for a reductive Lie group can be realized as the sheaf cohomolgy of an equivariant holomorphic line bundle defined on an open invariant submanifold of a complex flag space. Our main result is the following: suppose $G_0$ is a real reductive group of Harish-Chandra class and let $X$ be the associated full complex flag space. Suppose $mathcal{O}_{lambda}$ is the sheaf of sections of a $G_0$-equivariant holomorphic line bundle on $X$ whose parameter $lambda$ (in the usual twisted $mathcalD\mathrm{\%}$-module context) is antidominant and regular. Let $SsubseteqX$ be a $G_0\mathrm{\%}$-orbit and suppose $UsupseteqS$ is the smallest $G_0$-invariant open submanifold of $X$ that contains $S$. From the analytic localization theory of Hecht and Taylor one knows that there is a nonegative integer $q$ such that the compactly supported sheaf cohomology groups $H_{extc}^q(S,mathcal{O}_{lambda}mi{d}_S)$ vanish except in degree $q$, in which case $H_{extc}^q(S,mathcal{O}_{lambda}mi{d}_S)$ is the minimal globalization of an associated standard Beilinson-Bernstein module. In this study we show that the $q$-th compactly supported cohomolgy group $H_{extc}^q(U,mathcal{O}_{lambda}mi{d}_U)$ defines, in a natural way, a nonzero submodule of $H_{extc}^q(S,mathcal{O}_{lambda}mi{d}_S)$, which is irreducible (i.e. realizes the unique irreducible submodule of $H_{extc}^q(S,mathcal{O}_{lambda}mi{d}_S)$) when an associated algebraic variety is nonsingular. By a tensoring argument, we can show that the result holds, more generally (for nonsingular Schubert variety), when the representation $H_{extc}^q(S,mathcal{O}_{lambda}mi{d}_S)$ is what we call a classifying module.
