We show that $X$ admits a locally finite $\\sigma$-discrete $G$-functionally open cover each member of which is $G$-homeomorphic to a twisted product $G\\times_H S_i$, where $H$ is a compact large subgroup of $G$ (i.e., the quotient $G/H$ is a manifold). If, in addition, the space of connected components of $G$ is compact and $X$ is normal, then $X$ itself is $G$-homeomorphic to a twisted product $G\\times_KS$, where $K$ is a maximal compact subgroup of $G$. This implies that $X$ is $K$-homeomorphic to the product $G/K\\times S$, and in particular, $X$ is homeomorphic to the product $\\Bbb R^n\\times S$, where $n={\\rm dim\\,} G/K$. Using these results we prove the inequality $ {\\rm dim}\\, X\\le {\\rm dim}\\, X/G + {\\rm dim}\\, G$ for every Hausdorff topological group $X$ and a locally compact subgroup $G$ of $X$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-03-08T00:48:49.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "22A05", "22F05", "54H11", "54H15", "54F45" ], "keywords": [ "locally compact subgroup actions", "hausdorff topological group", "homeomorphic", "compact large subgroup", "maximal compact subgroup" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011arXiv1103.1407A" } } }
