  • Let $\overline{M}$ be a compact smoothly stratified pseudo-manifold endowed with a wedge metric $g$. Let $\overline{M}_Γ$ be a Galois $Γ$-covering. Under additional assumptions on $\overline{M}$, satisfied for example by Witt pseudo-manifolds, we show that the $L^2$-Betti numbers and the Novikov-Shubin invariants are well defined. We then establish their invariance under a smoothly stratified, strongly stratum preserving homotopy equivalence, thus extending results of Dodziuk, Gromov and Shubin to these pseudo-manifolds.
