An Alexandrov space is a type of metric space that satisfies certain curvature bounds. Named after the Russian mathematician P. S. Alexandrov, these spaces generalize the concept of curvatures in a way that allows for the study of geometric properties in situations where traditional Riemannian concepts might not apply.
