Abstract: In this paper, we determine the homotopy groups pi_4(Sigma K(A,1)) and pi_5(Sigma K(A,1)) for abelian groups A by using different facts and methods from group theory and homotopy theory: derived functors, the Carlsson simplicial construction, the Baues-Goerss spectral sequence, homotopy decompositions and the methods of algebraic K-theory. As the applications, we also determine pi_i(Sigma K(G,1)) with i=4,5 for some non-abelian groups G=Sigma_3 and SL(Z), and pi_4(Sigma K(A_4,1)) for the 4-th alternating group A_4.
