Betti's number and homology with integer coefficients

106 Views Asked by At

I don't know how to prove the following observation.

Take $G$ a connected Lie group such that $H^1(G,\mathbb{R})=0$ so the Betti's number is zero and this implies that $H^{1}(G,\mathbb{Z})$ is finite.

Can anyone help me?

thanks in advance
