"More stable" definitions of principal $G$-bundle

Let $G$ be a topological group. For any pointed topological space $X$, define $[X,G]$ to be the group whose underlying topological space is the space of pointed continuous maps from $X$ to $G$, with ...

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 ...

Principal bundles from a fibration of homogeneous spaces

Let $G$ be a compact (Lie) group, and $H \subseteq H'$ two compact (Lie) subgroups. It is clear that we have an obvious surjective map of homogeneous spaces $$ G/H \twoheadrightarrow G/H'. $$ Will it ...

Invariant integration on principal bundles

Let $G$ be a sufficiently nice topological or Lie group (e.g. compact), and let $H$ be a closed subgroup. This data determines a principal $H$ bundle $G \rightarrow G/H$ defined by the projection $g \...
