Generalized twisted sectors of orbifolds

Abstract: For a finitely generated discrete group Gamma, the Gamma-sectors of an orbifold Q are a disjoint union of orbifolds corresponding to homomorphisms from Gamma into a groupoid presenting Q. Here, we show that the inertia orbifold and k-multi-sectors are special cases of the Gamma-sectors, and that the Gamma-sectors are orbifold covers of Leida's fixed-point sectors. In the case of a global quotient, we show that the Gamma-sectors correspond to orbifolds considered by other authors for global quotient orbifolds as well as their direct generalization to the case of an orbifold given by a quotient by a Lie group. Furthermore, we develop a model for the Gamma-sectors corresponding to a generalized loop space.
