Abstract: In this note we prove the Borel Conjecture for closed, irreducible and sufficiently collapsed three-dimensional Alexandrov spaces. We also pose several questions related to characterization of fundamental groups of three-dimensional Alexandrov spaces, finite groups acting on them and rigidity results.

Review text

Summary: In this note we show that sufficiently collapsed, irreducible and aspherical Alexandrov 3-spaces are homeomorphic to 3-manifolds. As a corollary we obtain the validity of the Borel conjecture for sufficiently collapsed, irreducible and aspherical Alexandrov 3-spaces.
