    Fiberwise retraction and shape properties of the orbit space (English)
    0 references
    The authors first study, from the point of view of retracts and shape theory, the category \(G\text{-TOP}_P\) of \(G\)-spaces over a \(G\)-space \(B\), where \(G\) is a compact group. In particular, they prove that if \(B\) has only one orbit type and \(E\) is a metric \(G\)-ANR over \(B\), then the orbit space \(E/G\) is an ANR over \(B/G\). As an application they construct a fiberwise \(G\)-orbit functor \(\mu:G\text{-}SH_B\to SH_{B/G}\) on shape level.
