Abstract

Let MM be the 66-manifold MM as the total space of the sphere bundle of a rank 33 vector bundle over a simply connected closed 44-manifold. We show that after looping MM is homotopy equivalent to a product of loops on spheres in general. This particularly implies the cohomology rigidity property of MM after looping. Furthermore, passing to the rational homotopy, we show that such MM is Koszul in the sense of Berglund.
