From work of Pontryagin and Whitney, as I understand it, the homotopy 4-type of $BSO(3)$ is $K(\mathbb{Z}/2,2) \times_{K(\mathbb{Z}/4,4)} K(\mathbb{Z},4)$, where the pullback is along the maps $\...

Toda has calculated the $\mathbb{Z}/2$‐cohomology ring of $BPSO(4n+2)$, and also gave the simple exceptional calculation of the $\mathbb{Z}/2$‐cohomology of $BPSO(4)$, in Hiroshi Toda, Cohomology of ...

Let $G$ be a compact Lie group and $\mathfrak g$ its Lie algebra. For any $f$ in the dual space $\mathfrak g^*$, we can define a skew-symmetric bi-linear form on $\mathfrak g$ by $(A,B)\mapsto f([A,B])...

Let $(M,\omega)$ be a symplectic manifold with symplectic form $\omega$, carrying a Hamiltonian action of a compact connected Lie group $G$ with moment map $\mu:M\to \mathfrak{g}^\ast$, where $\...

Let $G$ be a noncompact connected real semisimple Lie group with finited center. Let $\Gamma$ be a cocompact discrete subgroup of $G$, and let $P$ be a parabolique subgroup with Langlands ...
