Fibers of generic smooth maps between manifolds of equal dimension
I have heard that the following is a "well-known"
Claim. Let $M$ and $N$ be smooth manifolds with equal dimensions and $M$ compact. Then a generic smooth map $f\colon M\to N$ has finite ...

Orbifolds are Thom-Mather stratified spaces
Where can I find a proof of (or if it is even true) that an (effective) orbifold is a Thom-Mather stratified space?
edit: after some search, I found the proof should be contained in either

singular metric (with essential singularity)
Working on some $Q$-curvature equation in dimension $4$, I have been faced with singular metric of the form $(\mathbb{B}, e^{-1/\vert x\vert ^2} \vert dx\vert)$. I try to figure out to what those ...

A geometric characterization of smooth points of a complex algebraic variety
Let $X^m\subset \mathbb{C}^n$ be an irreducible $m$-dimensional complex algebraic subvariety. Let $\mathbb{C}^n$ be equipped with the standard Hermitian metric.
Fix an arbitrary point $p\in X$. Let $...
