Nov 25, 2011 at 19:06 | comment | added | Ronnie Brown | I should have added that the $k$-invariant referred to is exactly the obstruction to there being a `universal covering' topological group $\tilede G$ of $G$ (in the sense that there is a morphism $p: \tilde{ G} \to G$ of topological groups which on each component is a universal cover of spaces). | |
