A conjecture by Milnor state that if $G$ is a Lie group, then the map $B(G^{disc})\to BG$ sending the classifying space of $G$ endowed with the discrete topology to the classifying space of the ...

There is much activity around the study of highly connected covers of Lie groups (well, of their "infinite rank" versions like $\displaystyle{\lim_{N\to\infty}} \ O(N)$, say). Looking at the ...
