Review text

By a \(CBA(k)\)- [resp. \(CBB(k)\)]-space one means an Aleksandrov space of curvature bounded above (resp. below) by \(k\). The authors are concerned with the question whether the Euclidean cones over \(CBA(k)\)- [or \(CBB(k)\)]-spaces preserve the curvature bounds. Let \(S^n_r\) be the \(n\)-dimensional sphere of radius \(r\) endowed with the length metric. It is known that the Euclidean cone \(CS_r^n\) over \(S^n_r\) is a \(CBA(0)\)-space for \(r\geq 1\) [see \textit{S. Buyalo}, Lectures on Spaces of Curvature Bounded Above, Lecture Notes on Spring Semester 1994/1995 academic year, University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign]. If \(r<1\), the authors prove that \(CS_r^n\) is a \(CBB(0)\)-space, but not a \(CBA(k)\)-space for any real number \(k\).
