Unordered Stiefel bundle

ID: unordered-stiefel-bundle

For a rank- Euclidean vector bundle, take its ordered orthonormal -frame bundle and quotient by the symmetric group permuting the vectors. The whole fiber is generally positive-dimensional. A prescribed global framing selects a finite subcover consisting of the unordered -element subsets of its distinguished frame vectors.
