Tse Leung So studies homotopy-theoretic questions about Lie groups. His paper on commutator orders examines the Samelson product in low-rank groups and its odd-primary behavior.[ref]
The group commutator is trivial when either input is the identity. It therefore descends from a Cartesian product to a smash product, turning noncommutativity into a based topological map. Its homotopy order measures information that the ordinary multiplication table alone does not express.[ref]
