Geometric and Arithmetic Frontiers of Orbifolds II

The aim of the workshop is to continue our study of orbifolds and Deligne-Mumford stacks. We aim to fix a common methodology for working with the classical and general theory of orbifolds. This will highlight some recent applications to the arithmetic, hyperbolicity and geometry of orbifolds and stacks.

The workshop will be held as an in person virtual hybrid event. It will be the second in a series of events related to the CNRS International Emerging Actions (IEA) award “Birational and arithmetic aspects of orbifolds,” to take place in alternate places.
