Abstract
We prove the following theorem of Borel: If G is a semisimple Lie group, H a closed subgroup such that the quotient space G/H carries finite measure, then for any finite-dimensional representation of G, each H-invariant subspace is G-invariant. The proof depends on a consideration of measures on projective spaces.
