Surjective homomorphisms of non-connected Lie groups
Let $\psi\colon B\to C$
be a homomorphism of real Lie groups, where the group $C$ is connected.
Let $B^0$ denote the identity component of $B$, and we set $\pi_0(B)=B/B^0$, then $\pi_0(B)$ is a ...

Closed subgroups of a connected Lie group
Is it true that for any closed subgroup $H$ of a connected Lie group $G$, the group of connected components $\pi_0(H)$ is finite or countable? (inspired by the comment of nfdc23 to this question ).

Milnor's conjecture on Lie group (co)homology and forgetful functor of extensions
Let $G$ and $H$ be compact Lie groups, Consider $Ext_{Lie}(G,H)$ the set of isomorphism of extensions of Lie groups:
$$
1\rightarrow G\rightarrow M\rightarrow H\rightarrow 1
$$
There exists a ...

Reference request: Any connected Lie group has a countable base for its topology
I am looking for a reference for the assertion in the title. This assertion is proved in a comment of user nfdc23 to this question. Has any proof of this assertion been published?
