Review text

In this paper, the topological structure of compact aspherical homogeneous spaces M is investigated. This structure is determined uniquely up to a finite covering by the fundamental group \(\pi_ 1(M)\). Some properties of \(\pi_ 1(M)\) and a characterization of all groups, which are commensurable with \(\pi_ 1(M)\) for compact aspherical homogeneous spaces M, are given.
