Fake Lie groups and maximal tori. I.
We prove the formality property of total spaces of fat bundles over compact homogeneous spaces. Some rational homotopy obstructions to fatness are obtained.
The category Top of topological spaces and continuous maps has the structures of a fibration category and a cofibration category in the sense of Baues, where fibration = Hurewicz fibration, cofibration = the usual cofibration, and weak equivalence = homotopy equivalence. Concentrating on fibrations, we consider the problem: given a full subcategory 𝓒 of Top, is the fibration structure of Top restricted to 𝓒 a fibration category? In this paper we take the special case where 𝓒 is the full subcategory...
