comment Homotopy $\pi_4(SU(2))=Z_2$
Thank you for your responses. I guess the best way for me to understand is from the generator of $\pi_4(S^3)$. I googled and get some visualization of Hopf map, but now can you give me some "visualization" or explanation on the "suspension homomorphism". @Sm Nlen @Tyler Lawson
