Enough vector bundles on orbispaces

Algebraic Topology 2023-08-15 v4 K-Theory and Homology

Abstract

We show that every orbispace satisfying certain mild hypotheses has 'enough' vector bundles. It follows that the K-theory of finite rank vector bundles on such orbispaces is a cohomology theory. Global presentation results for smooth orbifolds and derived smooth orbifolds also follow.
