Abstract:Factorization algebras have been defined using three different topologies on the Ran space. We study these three different topologies on the exponential, which is the union of the Ran space and the empty configuration, and show that an exponential property is satisfied in each case. As a consequence we describe the weak homotopy type of the exponential Exp(X) for each topology, in the case where X is not connected.We also study these exponentials as stratified spaces and show that the metric exponential is con… Show more
