Twisted products: Enveloping actions and equivariant absolute neighborhood extensors

The classical notion of twisted product is studied in the context of partial actions, in particular, we show that the globalization of a partial action is a twisted product. In addition, we establish conditions for the metrizability of twisted products, and some homotopy and categorical properties are proved. Furthermore, sufficient conditions for the enveloping space to be an equivariant absolute neighborhood extensor are also studied.
