Let G be a compact Lie group throughout this paper. We consider a paracompact differentiable manifold M of class C k and dimension m with a differentiable G-action G X M----+M of class C\ which we call a Ck G-manifold. We shall see that a differentiable (i.e., C k with I ::;'k< 00) G-manifold Mis equivariantly diffeomorphic to a real analytic (i.e., C"') G-manifold (Theorem 1.3). A COl equivariant smoothing is "uniquely" determined (Theorems 1.2-1.2'): unique up to C" equivariant diffeomorphism if M is compact or more generally M has only a finite number of orbit types and unique up to subanalytic C1 equivariant diffeomorphism in general. We use here the equivariant embedding theorem for real analytic G-manifold with finite orbit types in a finite dimensional linear representation space (Theorem 1.1). Reviewing the notion of subanaIytic sets and maps defined by Hironaka [HI] in Section 2, we treat the real analytic G-manifolds in Section 3. A natural subanalytic set structure is introduced on the orbit space (Theorem 3.1) and the stratification filtered by orbit types is subanalytic (Lemma 3.2). So, we have a unique triangulation of the orbit space which is compatible with the subanalytic set structure and consequently with the orbit type decomposition in the sense that two such triangulations have a common subanalytic and combinatorial subdivision (Theorem 3.3) using the results of [SY]. Combining these results we get a unique triangulation of the orbit space also for any differentiable G-manifold M. Notice that the orbit space of a differentiable G-manifold M with boundary is nothing but that of the differentiable GXZ2-manifold DM, where DMis the double of M;
