Abstract

Let GG be a Lie group and MM a smooth proper GG-manifold. Let pi:MtoM/Gpi:Mto M/G denote the natural map to the orbit space. Then there exist a PL manifold PP, a polyhedron LL and homeomorphisms tau:PtoMtau:Pto M and σ:M/GtoL\sigma:M/Gto L such that σ\circpiτ\sigma\circpi\circ\tau is PL. If MM and the GG-action are of analytic class, we can choose subanalytic τ\tau and then unique PP and LL.
