Exit paths and constructible stacks

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: For a Whitney stratification S of a space X (or more generally a topological stratification in the sense of Goresky and MacPherson) we introduce the notion of an S-constructible stack of categories on X. The motivating example is the stack of S-constructible perverse sheaves. We introduce a 2-category EPleq2(X,S), called the exit-path 2-category, which is a natural stratified version of the fundamental 2-groupoid. Our main result is that the 2-category of S-constructible stacks on X is equivalent to the 2-category of 2-functors from EPleq2(X,S) to the 2-category of small categories.
