[edit] Non-compact groups

Could it be useful to give a few examples of non-compact groups (i.e. the Lorentz-group)? To give a better understanding wether a group is compact or not.

[edit] Non Lie conpact groups.

I would like an example (or pointer to) a compact topological group that is not a Lie Group.
