= Whitney conditions
{wiki=Whitney_conditions}
The Whitney conditions refer to certain criteria in differential topology, specifically regarding the behavior of certain mappings and the properties of manifolds. There are two primary types of Whitney conditions: the Whitney condition for embeddings and the Whitney condition for stratifications of topological spaces. 1. **Whitney Condition for Embeddings:** This condition is concerned with the behavior of smooth maps between manifolds. Specifically, it provides conditions under which a smooth map between manifolds is an embedding.
