Abstract:
The main result of this paper is as follows:
{\it If a compact group K acts continuously on a normal space X so that the orbit space X/K is metrizable, then dimX=IndX}.
Particular cases of spaces on which a compact group acts continuously with a metrizable orbit space are locally compact groups and their quotient spaces and also almost metrizable (in particular, Čech-complete) groups [5] and their quotient spaces.
All the spaces we consider are assumed to be Hausdorff, and X completely regular. All subgroups that occur are closed and all maps are continuous.
