Using moment map techniques we establish the existence of a quotient and a version of Luna's slice theorem as well as a version of the Hilbert-Mumford criterion. A global slice theorem is proved for proper actions. We give new proofs of results of Mostow on decompositions of groups and homogeneous spaces.27 pagesComplex VariablesRepresentation TheorySymplectic Geometry32M05Cartan decomposition of the moment maptext
