Description for The Topological Classification of Stratified Spaces
Paperback. This text provides topologists with a new way of looking at the classification theory of singular spaces. Divided into three parts, the book begins with an overview of high-dimensional manifold theory. It then offers the parallel theory for stratified spaces. Applications are also included. Series: Chicago Lectures in Mathematics. Num Pages: 298 pages, 15 line drawings, bibliography, index. BIC Classification: PBM; PBP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 274 x 154 x 17. Weight in Grams: 424.
This text provides the theory for stratified spaces, along with important examples and applications, that is analogous to the surgery theory for manifolds. In the first expository account of this field, Weinberger provides topologists with a new way of looking at the classification theory of singular spaces with his original results. Divided into three parts, the book begins with an overview of modern high-dimensional manifold theory. Rather than including complete proofs of all theorems, Weinberger demonstrates key constructions, gives convenient formulations, and shows the usefulness of the technology. Part 2 offers the parallel theory for stratified spaces. Here, the topological ... Read more
