Abstract
We endow the diffeomorphism group of a paracompact (reduced) orbifold with the structure of an infinite dimensional Lie group modelled on the space of compactly supported sections of the tangent orbibundle. For a second countable orbifold, we prove that this Lie group is C^0-regular and thus regular in the sense of Milnor. Furthermore an explicit characterization of the Lie algebra associated to the diffeomorphism group of an orbifold is given.
期刊介绍:
DISSERTATIONES MATHEMATICAE publishes long research papers (preferably 50-100 pages) in any area of mathematics. An important feature of papers accepted for publication should be their utility for a broad readership of specialists in the domain. In particular, the papers should be to some reasonable extent self-contained. The paper version is considered as primary.
The following criteria are taken into account in the reviewing procedure: correctness, mathematical level, mathematical novelty, utility for a broad readership of specialists in the domain, language and editorial aspects. The Editors have adopted appropriate procedures to avoid ghostwriting and guest authorship.
