Jul 6, 2020 at 20:28 | comment | added | Connor Malin | A non connected example of this is given by $H= \mathbb{Z}/2 \times \mathbb{Z}/2$ and $G= \mathbb{Z}/4$. | |
Jul 6, 2020 at 20:17 | comment | added | Connor Malin | If you construct two Lie groups such that $H \simeq G$, but $BH \not\simeq BG$ then any homotopy equivalence $H \simeq G$ cannot be homotopic to a homomorphism, since applying $B$ to it would deloop it to a weak equivalence. | |
