Self-Maps of Low Rank Lie Groups at Odd Primes
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 November 2018
Abstract
Let $G$ be a simple, compact, simply-connected Lie group localized at an odd prime $p$. We study the group of homotopy classes of self-maps $\left[ G,\,G \right]$ when the rank of $G$ is low and in certain cases describe the set of homotopy classes of multiplicative self-maps $H\left[ G,\,G \right]$. The low rank condition gives $G$ certain structural properties which make calculations accessible. Several examples and applications are given.
