Abstract

As already mentioned, a key part of our investigation involves the abstract classifications of mappings under \(_{\mathcal{V}}\mathcal{A}\)-equivalence for a special semianalytic stratification \(\mathcal{V}\). Initially the stratification is simple, e.g. modeled by a distinguished smooth curve on a smooth surface, or a boundary curve of a smooth surface with boundary. In such cases, there is a finite classification in low codimension.
