Complex Grassmann manifolds $G_{n,k}$ are a generalization of complex projective spaces and have many important features some of which are captured by the $Pl{\ddot{u}}cker$ embedding $f:G_{n,k}{\rightarrow}{\mathbb{C}}P^{N-1}$ where $N=\(^n_k\)$. The problem of existence of cross sections of fibrations can be studied using the Gottlieb group. In a more generalized context one can use the relative evaluation subgroup of a map to describe the cohomology of smooth fiber bundles with fiber the (complex) Grassmann manifold $G_{n,k}$. Our interest lies in making use of techniques of rational homotopy theory to address problems and questions involving applications of Gottlieb groups in general. In this paper, we construct the Sullivan minimal model of the (complex) Grassmann manifold $G_{n,k}$ for $2{\leq}k<n$, and we compute the rational evaluation subgroup of the embedding $f:G_{n,k}{\rightarrow}{\mathbb{C}}P^{N-1}$. We show that, for the Sullivan model ${\phi}:A{\rightarrow}B$, where A and B are the Sullivan minimal models of ${\mathbb{C}}P^{N-1}$ and $G_{n,k}$ respectively, the evaluation subgroup $G_n(A,B;{\phi})$ of ${\phi}$ is generated by a single element and the relative evaluation subgroup $G^{rel}_n(A,B;{\phi})$ is zero. The triviality of the relative evaluation subgroup has its application in studying fibrations with fibre the (complex) Grassmann manifold.

For a fibration (E,B,p) with fiber F and a fiber map f, we show that if the inclusion $i : F \to E$ has a left homotopy inverse, then $G^f_n(E,F)$ is isomorphic to $G^f_n(F,E) \oplus \pi_n(B)$. In particular, by taking f as the identity map on E we have $G_n(E,F)$ is isomorphic to $G_n(F) \oplus \pi_n(B)$.

Let G denote an upper semicontinuous(usc) decomposition of an (n + k)-manifold M into closed, connected n-manifolds. What can be said about the decomposition space B = M/G\ulcorner What regularity properties are possessed by the decomposition map $p : M \to B \ulcorner$ Certain forms of these questions have been addressed by D. Coram and pp. Duvall [C-D].

Approximate fibrations provide a useful class of maps. Fibrators give instant detection of maps in this class, and PL fibrators do the same in the PL category. We show that rational homology spheres with some additional conditions are codimension-k PL fibrators and PL manifolds with trivial homology groups in some range can be codimension-k (k > 2) PL fibrators.

Let N be a Closed n-manifold with residually finite, torsion free $\pi$$_1$(N) and finite H$_1$,(N). Suppose that $\pi$$\_$k/(N)=0 for 1 < k < n-1. We show that N is a codimension-n PL fibrator if and only if N does not cover itself regularly and cyclically up to homotopy type, provided $\pi$$_1$(N) satisfies a certain condition.

Approximate fibrations form a useful class of maps. By definition fibrators provide instant detection of maps in this class, and PL fibrators do the same in the PL category. We show that every closed s-hopfian t-aspherical manifold N with sparsely Abelian, hopfian fundamental group and X(N) $\neq$ 0 is a codimension-(t + 1) PL fibrator.

In the article we show that nondieomorphic symplectic 4-manifolds which admit marked Lefschetz fibrations can share the same monodromy group. Explicitly we prove that, for each integer g > 0, every knot surgery 4-manifold in a family {$E(2)_K{\mid}K$ is a bered 2-bridge knot of genus g in $S^3$} admits a marked Lefschetz fibration structure which has the same monodromy group.

If N is any cartesian product of a closed simply connected n-manifold $N_1$ and a closed aspherical m-manifold $N_2$, then N is a codimension 2 fibrator. Moreover, if N is any closed hopfian PL n-manifold with $\pi_iN=0$ for $2 {\leq} i < m$, which is a codimension 2 fibrator, and $\pi_i N$ is normally cohopfian and has no proper normal subroup isomorphic to $\pi_1 N/A$ where A is an abelian normal subgroup of $\pi_1 N$, then N is a codimension m PL fibrator.

For a k-connected inverse system $({\scr{X}},\;*)=((X_{\lambda},\;*),p_{{\lambda}{{\lambda}}^{\prime}},\;{\Lambda})$ of pointed topological spaces and pointed preserving weak fibrations, inducting epimorphic chain maps, over a directed set, we show that the homotopy group ${\pi}_k(lim{\scr{X}},\;*)$ of the inverse limit is isomorphic to the integral homology group $$H_k(lim{\scr{X}};\mathbb{Z})$. Using the result of S. $Marde{\check{s}}i{\acute{c}}$, we prove that the group of pure extension $Pext(colimH^n({\scr{X}},\;A)$ is isomorphic to the group of extension $Ext({\Delta}({\lambda}),\;Hom(H^n({\scr{X}}),\;A))$.
