They arise in the study of categorical invariants of 3-manifolds and may have applications to topological data analysis. We define 2-stratifolds and study properties of their associated labeled graphs that determine which ones are simply connected.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-05-12T23:20:14.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "57M20", "57M15" ], "keywords": [ "stratifolds", "disjoint simple closed curves", "sheets meet", "topological data analysis", "study properties" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv150503188G" } } }
