Intersection Homology. General perversities and topological invariance
  Topological invariance of the intersection homology of a pseudomanifold without codimension one strata, proven by Goresky and MacPherson, is one of the main features of this homology. This property is true for codimension-dependent perversities with some growth conditions, verifying $\overline p(1)=\overline p(2)=0$. King reproves this invariance by associating an intrinsic pseudomanifold $X^*$ to any pseudomanifold $X$. His proof consists of an isomorphism between the associated intersection homologies $H^{\overline{p}}_{*}(X) \cong H^{\overline{p}}_{*}( X^*)$ for any perversity $\overline{p}$ with the same growth conditions verifying $\overline p(1)\geq 0$.   In this work, we prove a certain topological invariance within the framework of strata-dependent perversities, $\overline{p}$, which corresponds to the classical topological invariance if $\overline{p}$ is a GM-perversity. We also extend it to the tame intersection homology, a variation of the intersection homology, particularly suited for ``large'' perversities, if there is no singular strata on $X$ becoming regular in $X^*$. In particular, under the above conditions, the intersection homology and the tame intersection homology are invariant under a refinement of the stratification.
