We show that almost nonnegatively curved m-dimensional manifolds are, up to finite cover, nilpotent spaces in the sense of homotopy theory and have C(m)-nilpotent fundamental groups. We also show that up to a finite cover almost…

An old conjecture in non-K\"ahler geometry states that, if a compact Hermitian manifold has constant holomorphic sectional curvature, then the metric must be K\"ahler (when the constant is non-zero) or Chern flat (when the constant is…
