Neighborhoods in Stratified Spaces with Two Strata
نویسندگان
چکیده
We develop a theory of tubular neighborhoods for the lower strata in manifold stratified spaces with two strata. In these topologically stratified spaces, manifold approximate fibrations and teardrops play the role that fibre bundles and mapping cylinders play in smoothly stratified spaces. Applications include the classification of neighborhood germs, the construction of exotic stratifications, a multiparameter isotopy extension theorem and an h–cobordism extension theorem.

Neighborhoods of Strata in Manifold Stratified Spaces
Strata in manifold stratified spaces are shown to have neighborhoods that are teardrops of manifold stratified approximate fibrations (under dimension and compactness assumptions). This is the best possible version of the tubular neighborhood theorem for strata in the topological setting. Applications are given to replacement of singularities, to the structure of neighborhoods of points in mani...

A theory of tubular neighborhoods for strata in manifold stratified spaces is developed. In these topologically stratified spaces, manifold stratified approximate fibrations and teardrops play the role that fibre bundles and mapping cylinders play in smoothly stratified spaces. Applications include a multiparameter isotopy extension theorem, neighborhood germ classification and a topological ve...

متن کاملExotic Stratifications Münster June 19, 2008
We discuss joint work with B. Hughes, S. Weinberger and B. Williams [7] on some examples of stratified spaces with two strata. We will describe the structure of neighborhoods of the lower stratum in the whole space in general and give some specific calculations when the lower stratum is a circle. Using some known K-theory calculations we produce examples where the neighborhood “improves” under ...
متن کاملControlled Topological Equivalence of Maps in the Theory of Stratified Spaces and Approximate Fibrations
Ideas from the theory of topological stability of smooth maps are transported into the controlled topological category. For example, the controlled topological equivalence of maps is discussed. These notions are related to the classi cation of manifold approximate brations and manifold strati ed approximate brations. In turn, these maps form a bundle theory which can be used to describe neighbo...
