Stellar stratifications on classifying spaces

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: We extend Bj"orner's characterization of the face poset of finite CW complexes to a certain class of stratified spaces, called cylindrically normal stellar complexes. As a direct consequence, we obtain a discrete analogue of cell decompositions in smooth Morse theory, by using the classifying space model introduced in arXiv:1612.08429. As another application, we show that the exit-path simplicial set mathrmExit(X) of a finite cylindrically normal CW stellar complex X is a quasicategory.
