Abstract

Let GG be a matrix group. Topological GG-manifolds with Palais-proper action have the GG-homotopy type of countable GG-CW complexes (3.2). This generalizes E Elfving's dissertation theorem for locally linear GG-manifolds (1996). Also we improve the Bredon--Floyd theorem from compact groups GG (1960).
