Nonabelian cohomology of compact Lie groups

Abstract: Given a Lie group G with finitely many components and a compact Lie group A which acts on G by automorphisms, we prove that there always exists an A-invariant maximal compact subgroup K of G, and that for every such K, the natural map H1(A,K)oH1(A,G) is bijective. This generalizes a classical result of Serre [6] and a recent result in [1].
