Abstract
We study closed three-dimensional Alexandrov spaces with a lower Ricci curvature bound in the sense, focusing our attention on those with positive or nonnegative Ricci curvature. First, we show that a closed three-dimensional -Alexandrov space must be homeomorphic to a spherical space form or to the suspension of . We then classify closed three-dimensional -Alexandrov spaces.
