Spaces with Multiple Conical Singularities and their Stratifications

Abstract

In this paper we further develop the theory of MCS spaces. Our main result shows that MCS spaces, as defined by Perelman, are CS sets with respect to their MCS stratification, and that in fact, the intrinsic stratification agrees with the MCS stratification. As a consequence, we improve on Perelman's result and answer affirmatively a question by Fujioka.
