Abstract: Perelman's doubling theorem asserts that the metric space obtained by gluing along their boundaries two copies of an Alexandrov space with curvature geqkappa is an Alexandrov space with the same dimension and satisfying the same curvature lower bound. We show that this result cannot be extended to metric measure spaces satisfying synthetic Ricci curvature bounds in the mathrmMCP sense. The counterexample is given by the Grushin half-plane, which satisfies the mathrmMCP(0,N) if and only if Ngeq4, while its double satisfies the mathrmMCP(0,N) if and only if Ngeq5.
