On The Functorialrily Of Stratified Desingularizations
  This article is devoted to the study of smooth desingularization, which are customary employed in the definition of De Rham Intersection Cohomology with differential forms. In this paper we work with the category of Thom-Mather simple spaces. We construct a functor which sends each Thom-Mather simple space into a smooth manifold called its primary unfolding. Hence we prove that the primary unfoldings are unique up Thom-Mather isomorphisms.
