Streszczenie
We endow the diffeomorphism group ${\rm Diff}_{\rm Orb}(Q,\mathcal U)$ of a paracompact (reduced) orbifold with the structure of an infinite-dimensional Lie group modeled on the space of compactly supported sections of the tangent orbibundle. For a second countable orbifold, we prove that ${\rm Diff}_{\rm Orb}(Q,\mathcal U)$ is $C^0$-regular, and thus regular in the sense of Milnor. Furthermore, an explicit characterization of the Lie algebra associated to ${\rm Diff}_{\rm Orb}(Q,\mathcal U)$ is given.
