Chen-Ruan Cohomology and Stringy Orbifold K-Theory for Stable Almost Complex Orbifolds

Comparing to the construction of stringy cohomology ring of equivariant stable almost complex manifolds and its relation with the Chen-Ruan cohomology ring of the quotient almost complex orbifolds, the authors construct in this note a Chen-Ruan cohomology ring for a stable almost complex orbifold. The authors show that for a finite group G and a G-equivariant stable almost complex manifold X, the G-invariant part of the stringy cohomology ring of (X, G) is isomorphic to the Chen-Ruan cohomology ring of the global quotient stable almost complex orbifold [X/G]. Similar result holds when G is a torus and the action is locally free. Moreover, for a compact presentable stable almost complex orbifold, they study the stringy orbifold K-theory and its relation with Chen-Ruan cohomology ring.
