Abstract: | We show that for a connected Lie group G, the linearity of its radical \({\sqrt G}\) (that is of its biggest connected normal solvable subgroup), is a necessary and sufficient condition for the boundedness of all Borel cohomology classes of G with integer coefficients, and that the linearity of \({\sqrt G}\) is also equivalent to a large-scale geometric property of G (involving distortion). |
