SEMIALGEBRAIC G CW COMPLEX STRUCTURE OF SEMIALGEBRAIC G SPACES

Let G be a compact Lie group and M a semialgebraic G space in some orthogonal representation space of G. We prove that if G is finite then M has an equivariant semialgebraic triangulation. Moreover this triangulation is unique. When G is not finite we show that M has a semialgebraic G CW complex structure, and this structure is unique. As a consequence compact semialgebraic G space has an equivariant simple homotopy type.
