The diffeomorphism group of a non-compact orbifold

preprint2015arXivOpen access

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.
