Cohomology of Lie group $E_8$, e.g. $H^d(E_8,\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z})$
What is the $d$-th cohomology of a Lie group $E_8$, say $H^d(E_8,\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z})$ with $\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}$ coefficient?
I suppose that there are many nontrivial groups of $H^d(E_8,\mathbb{...

Topological groups satisfying the Borel transgression theorem
I am using the Borel transgression theorem as given in Mimura and Toda's "Topology of Lie groups I and II", page 378, Theorem 2.7. I know that it applies when the fiber has the homotopy type ...
