Suppose that $G$ is a compact metrizable group and let $H$ be a closed subgroup of $G$.



Is it true that there must exists a Borel-measurable projection map $p:Grightarrow H$ with the property that for every $hin H$ and $gin G$ one has that $p(gh)=p(g)cdot h$? (In particular $p(h)=h$).

The answer is a yes! (Thanks to GEdgar who pointed out the relation with "selection theorems")



In the book "A Course on Borel sets" page 186 they proved a claim that implies the following:




Theorem: Let $H,G$ be as in the question. Then there exists a "cross-section" $s:G/Hrightarrow G$ such that $scirc p = id$ where $p:Grightarrow G/H$ the quotient map $p(g)=gH$.




Proof: Let $Pi = a_i H : a_iH text is a coset of H $ then by the theorem in the book there exists a set Borel set $S$ such that $Scap a_i H = s_i$.



This defines a (Borel) map $s:G/Hrightarrow G$ such that $s(u) = s_i$ if $uin a_i H$. (The map is Borel because $s^-1(U)=s^-1(Ucap S) = p(Ucap S)$ and quotient map is open so it sends Borel to Borel), which proves the theorem.



This theorem leads to our result, as one can can define a map $varphi:Grightarrow H$ by $varphi(g) = gcdot (s(p(g))^-1$.



Since for every $hin H$ one has that $p(gh)=p(g)$ we have that $varphi(gh)=varphi(g)cdot h$.



This also answers positively my (now obviously related) other question:



$Gcong G/Htimes H$ measureably
