What is Rorγ, RevErbα, or RevErbβ?

This is a *text* alpha, not necessarily upright but changing shape like any
other text (e.g. italic in case of \emph{RevErb\textgreek{b}}).
The \textgreek command uses TeX fonts in the "LGR" font encoding. However,
it seems you do not have installed support for Greek text, as even the
fallback Computer Modern does not support this font encoding.
Depending on your OS and LaTeX distribution, you will need to install some
package(s) to support Greek text first (texlive-lang-greek with Debian).

AFAIK, there are some greek letters in the OTF version of TG Pagella.
However, as
* LGR is no "official" LaTeX font encoding and
* the TeX Gyre fonts are missing most accented Greek letters
there is no support for Greek with TeX Gyre fonts under 8-bit TeX engines.

Options are:
* use "non-TeX fonts" with XeTeX or LuaTeX
* install support for Greek text as well as suitable Greek TeX fonts
e.g. GFS Didot
(http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/gfsdidot.html) and set
up a substitute font for the LGR encding.
The "substitutefont" package may help here.
http://www.ctan.org/pkg/substitutefont
Example: Palatino with the standard package `mathpazo` for Latin and
GFS Didot
for Greek::
\usepackage[sc,slantedGreek]{mathpazo}
\substitutefont{LGR}{pplx}{udidot}
