@JeffreyRolland, is there a relationship between the fundamental group and the obstruction? Is it obviously the aspherical manifold which the obstruction vanish support nonpositive curvature?
Thank you all! By the way, the question- "does there exist an aspherical manifold which admits a metric with non-negative sectional curvature?" is a stuip question or not?
