Smooth map homotopic to Lie group homomorphism

As Igor shows, every endomorphism of a simple Lie group $G$ has degree $\in\{0,\pm 1\}$. On the other hand, every compact Lie group admits self maps of other degrees. Namely, the $k$-th power map $g\ …

Reference request: A collection of topologies on $\mathbb{N}$ formed via series

First, some quick notation: for any series $\sum_{n=1}^\infty a_n$ whose terms are positive real numbers, and for any subset $M = \{m_1, m_2,...\} \subseteq \mathbb{N}$, we write $\sum_M a_n$ to mean …
