Abstract
Let G be a simple, simply-connected, compact Lie group of low rank relative to a fixed prime p. After localization at p, there is a space A which “generates” G in a certain sense. Assuming G satisfies a homotopy nilpotency condition relative to p, we show that the Samelson product ã1G,1Gã of the identity of G equals the order of the Samelson product ãı,ıã of the inclusion ı:AâG. Applying this result, we calculate the orders of ã1G,1Gã for all p-regular Lie groups and give bounds of the orders of ã1G,1Gã for certain quasi-p-regular Lie groups.
