Morse-Smale-Witten complex for gradient-like vector fields on stratified spaces
Ludwig, Ursula
Research article (book contribution) | Peer reviewedAbstract
The aim of this article is to generalise the notion of gradient-like vec- tor fields to stratified spaces and to establish the associated Morse-Smale-Witten complex. The Morse-inequalities which relate the number of singular points of the vector field to the homology of the stratified space are a consequence of the existence of this complex.
