The purpose of the work was to find whether the compact linear group space factor is a topological manifold, as well as a homological manifold. The paper studied the case of an infinite group with a commutative connected component. In previous research a method of reducing an arbitrary representation to a representation with a 2-stable set of weights was introduced. Findings of the research helped to obtain important necessary conditions in the case of a 2-stable weight set
