Abstract: For any (Hausdorff) compact group $G$ with the normalized Haar measure ${mathbfm}_G$, denote by $mcp(G)$ the probability ${mathbfm}_{GimesG}((x,y)inGimesG;|;xy=yx)$ of commuting a randomly chosen pair of elements of $G$. Here we prove that if $mcp(G)>0$, then there exists a finite group $H$ such that $mcp(G)=fracmcp(H)|G:F{|}^2$, where $F$ is the FC-center of $G$ i.e. the set of all elements of $G$ whose conjugacy classes are finite and $H$ is isoclinic to $F$ with $mcp(F)=mcp(H)$. The latter equality enables one to transfer many existing results concerning commuting probability of finite groups to one of compact groups. For example, here for a compact group $G$ we prove that if $mcp(G)>frac340$ then either $G$ is solvable or, else $Gcong{A}_{5}imesT$ for some abelian group $T$, in which case $mcp(G)=frac112$; where $A_5$ denotes the alternating group of degree $5$.
