Equivariant Morse theory for non-compact Lie groups

Let $G$ be a Lie group acting properly on a smooth manifold $M$. The (non-equivariant) definition of a Morse function does not carry over to equivariant functions $M \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ (where $\...

Explicit example of an equivariant embedding of $U(n)/( U(k) \times U(n-k))$ into a finite dimensional $U(n)$-representation

We know that if $H$ is a closed subgroup of a compact Lie group $G$ one can find a finite dimensional $G$-representation $V$ and an element $v_0 \in V$ such that $\textrm{Stab}(v_0)= H$. This gives a $...

How to extend an equivariant map from a compact Lie group

Let $G$ be a compact Lie group and let $H$ be a closed subgroup of it. Let $g$ be a torsion element of $G$ and $C_G(g)$ the centralizer of it. Let $Y$ be a $C_G(g)-$space. I'm working on the space $$...
