The classifying space BG of a group G classifies principal G-bundles, in that homotopy classes of maps [X, BG] are naturally identified with isomorphism classes of principal G-bundles P ⭢ X.

Formality of classifying spaces
I've only just seen this rather old thread. I've recently been computing with cochains on $BG$ for $G$ a finite group in characteristic $p$, and have some rather surprising conclusions. If $G$ has eit …

Trivial group cohomology induces trivial cohomology of subgroups
For any abelian group $A$ we have a canonical isomorphism $\bigwedge^2A\to H_2(A,\mathbb{Z})$, given by the (anti-symmetric) Pontrjagin product $H_1(A,\mathbb{Z})\times H_1(A,\mathbb{Z}) \to H_2(A,\ma …

Classifying space of a non-discrete group and relationship between group homology and topolo...
You may want to look at the classical paper of Jack Milnor, "On the homology of Lie groups made discrete." The Friedlander-Milnor conjecture states that the map $BG^\delta \to BG$ (where $G$ is a Lie …
