When using groupby.apply on an empty dataframe or series with group_keys=False, the output index is incorrectly set to the grouping keys, while it is expected to be a RangeIndex(0, 0, 1).
From the original issue:

>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'A': [], 'B': [], 'C': []}) >>> g2 = df.groupby('A', group_keys=False) >>> r2 = g2.apply(lambda x: x / x.sum()) >>> print(r2.index) Index([], dtype='float64', name='A') 

Expected:

>>> print(r2.index) RangeIndex(start=0, stop=0, step=1)
