Abstract: Quasifolds are spaces that are locally modelled by quotients of $mathbb{R}^n$ by countable affine group actions. These spaces first appeared in Elisa Prato's generalization of the Delzant construction, and special cases include leaf spaces of irrational linear flows on the torus, and orbifolds. We consider the category of diffeological quasifolds, which embeds in the category of diffeological spaces, and the bicategory of quasifold groupoids, which embeds in the bicategory of Lie groupoids, bibundles, and bibundle morphisms. We prove that, restricting to those morphisms that are locally invertible, and to quasifold groupoids that are effective, the functor taking a quasifold groupoid to its diffeological orbit space is an equivalence of the underlying categories. These results complete and extend earlier work with Masrour Zoghi.
