This is applied to KL (or POD) long time averaged data, in cases where the average drifts with a constant velocity <latex> c </latex>. In the //geometric phase literature// one gets dynamical equations on the phase space modulo the symmetry group (these are called the //reduced equations// on the //reduced phase space//) and the problem is then how to put back into the dynamics the missing group, or //phase variables//. These additional equations are usually called the //reconstruction equations//. Whenever one has equivariant dynamics on //M//, one gets a well-defined dynamical system on the quotient (or orbit) space <latex>M=G</latex> which consists, in our case, of the space in which two functions related by a translation are identified. When //M// is an inner product space and the group action is by isometries, there is a natural way to identify, at least locally in function space, the quotient space with a subspace of //M//; namely we pick a point <latex>u_0 \in M </latex> and look at the affine space through the point <latex>u_0</latex> orthogonal to the group orbit through that point. We call this affine space a //slice// and denote it by <latex>S u_0</latex>. ~~DISCUSSION~~
