Decomposition, purity and fibrations by normal crossing divisors

Algebraic Geometry 2018-11-15 v1

Abstract

We give a simple geometric proof of the decomposition theorem in terms of Thom-Whitney stratifications by reduction to fibrations by normal crossings divisors over the strata and explain the relation with the local purity theorem an unpublished result of Deligne and Gabber.
