Samelson products in p-regular SO(2n) and its homotopy normality

Algebraic Topology 2018-06-15 v2

Abstract

A Lie group is called pp-regular if it has the pp-local homotopy type of a product of spheres. (Non)triviality of the Samelson products of the inclusions of the factor spheres into pp-regular SO(2n)(p)\mathrm{SO}(2n)_{(p)} is determined, which completes the list of (non)triviality of such Samelson products in pp-regular simple Lie groups. As an application, we determine the homotopy normality of the inclusion SO(2n1)SO(2n)\mathrm{SO}(2n-1)\to\mathrm{SO}(2n) in the sense of James at any prime pp.
