Abstract: We establish that a relatively ergodic extension of arbitrary measure-preserving dynamical systems has relative discrete spectrum if and only if it is isomorphic to a generalized skew-product by a bundle of compact homogeneous spaces. This result is motivated by Furstenberg-Zimmer and Host-Kra structure theories for uncountable group actions, and extends previous results due to Mackey, Zimmer, Ellis, Austin, and the second author and Tao. Our innovations are threefold: (i) a Peter-Weyl-type representation theory for compact group bundles, (ii) a geometric description of extensions with relative discrete spectrum in topological dynamics, and (iii) a translation of the ergodic theoretical problem into topological dynamics.
