Non-example for Whitney (a) stratifications

Given a $C^1$ stratification $\mathscr{S}$ of a $C^1$ manifold $M$, we write $N^\ast \mathscr{S}$ for the union of conormals to the strata. The stratification is said to be Whitney (a) if $N^\ast \...

Stratified pseudomanifold

In the definition of an $n$-dimensional stratified pseudomanifold one demands the following filtration $X=X_n \supset X_{n-1}=X_{n-2} \supset X_{n-3}\supset ... \supset X_0 \supset X_{-1}=\emptyset$. ...

Stratification of complex algebraic varieties

Let $V$ be a complex quasi-projective variety, we know from H. Whitney's and B Teissier works on stratifications of algebraic varieties that $V$ has an intrinsic stratification $$X_0\subset X_2\...

Stratification of a smooth map

So, this is an exercise. But from math.stackexchange I have been suggested to post this question here. To find the Thom-Boardman stratification of the smooth map $f(x,y,a,b,c,d)=x^2y+y^3+a(x^2+y^2)+...

Whitney Conditions vs Equisingularity

In studying singular spaces, it is often important to pick an appropriate stratification which encodes the singularity structure. One class of such stratifications are called "Whitney stratifications" ...

Stratification which makes the defining functions isotrivial

Let $0\in X\subset\mathbb{C}^N$ be a germ of complex space and $0\in Z\subset X$ be a closed analytic subset (globally) defined by holomorphic functions $f_1,\dots,f_r$. Is there a complex analytic ...
