Shioya–Yamaguchi's Alexandrov sphere conjecture

At least 16 years old · documented by

Let Y∞3Y^3_\infty be a 33-dimensional compact, simply connected, non-negatively curved Alexandrov space without boundary, and suppose that Y∞3Y^3_\infty is a topological manifold. Shioya–Yamaguchi's conjecture. Then Y∞3Y^3_\infty is homeomorphic to a sphere. This conjecture concerns the topology of diameter-collapsed limits in the study of collapsing 33-manifolds; the source gives no evidence of its resolution.
