In the paper under review the algebraic topology of (quasi)toric orbifolds is studied. These orbifolds form a certain class of even-dimensional orbifolds \(X\) with actions of a half-dimensional torus \(T\). The paper defines and studies so-called retractable toric orbifolds which generalize divisive weighted projective spaces. It is shown that a retractable toric orbifold \(X\) admits a \(T\)-invariant cell structure. This is used to give a GKM-style computation of generalized \(T\)-equivariant cohomology rings of \(X\). For the cases of \(K\)-theory, cobordism and ordinary cohomology it is shown that this equivariant cohomology ring is isomorphic to a piecewise algebra which is defined in terms of combinatorial data.
