Rational homotopy theory and nonnegative curvature
Abstract
Description
In this note, we answer positively a question by Belegradek and Kapovitch about the relation between rational homotopy theory and a problem in Riemannian geometry which asks that total spaces of which vector bundles over compact nonnegative curved manifolds admit (complete) metrics with nonnegative curvature.
