Isomorphism between the normal-space quotient and the tangent bundle of an orbit space
Isomorphism between the normal-space quotient and the tangent bundle of an orbit space
Let be a smooth manifold with a proper action of a group . For each , let be the normal space to the orbit through , and define
Let be the stabilizer of , set
and endow with its induced stratified vector-bundle structure over . Let denote the stratified tangent bundle of the Whitney A stratified space . Normal-space quotient isomorphism conjecture. The canonical morphism of stratified vector bundles
is an isomorphism over . The map is bijective and restricts to an isomorphism of smooth vector bundles on each stratum; the conjectural content is that it is an isomorphism of stratified vector bundles globally.
