Abstract: The grassmannian of hermitian lagrangian spaces in $mathbb{C}^{n}oplusmathbb{C}^n$ is a natural compactification of the space of hermitian $nimesn$ matrices. We describe a Schubert-like, Whitney regular stratification on this space which has a Morse theoretic origin. We prove that these strata define closed subanalytic currents `{a} la R. Hardt, generating the integral homology of this space, we investigate their intersection theoretic properties, and we prove certain odd (in K-theoretic sense) Thom-Porteous type theorems.
