Streszczenie
We show that for $n\ge 3$ the symplectic group $Sp(n)$ is as a $2$-compact group determined up to isomorphism by the isomorphism type of its maximal torus normalizer. This allows us to determine the integral homotopy type of $Sp(n)$ among connected finite loop spaces with maximal torus.
