Abstract
We study the formality of the mapping torus of an orientation-preserving diffeomorphism of a manifold. In particular, we give conditions under which a mapping torus has a non-zero Massey product. As an application we prove that there are non-formal compact co-symplectic manifolds of dimension and with first Betti number if and only if and , or and . Explicit examples for each one of these cases are given.
