We prove that for any stratified fibre bundle p:A-~M (A being the underlying space of an abstract prestratification and M a smooth manifold) and any tr~ngulation of M there exists a triangulation of A such that p becomes linear with respect to these triangulations. In particular, any abstract prestratification is triangulable. As a corollary we obtain that the orbit space of a smooth action of a compact Lie group is triangulable.The purpose of this paper is to give an affirmative answer to the following problem: given a stratified fibre
Let G be a compact Lie group and M be a smooth G-space. We prove that the real cohomology algebra of the orbit space M/G is isomorphic to the homology algebra of the de Rham complex of G-basic differential forms on M.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
