Equivariant Cobordism of Torus Orbifolds

Abstract

Torus orbifolds are topological generalizations of symplectic toric orbifolds. The authours give a construction of smooth orbifolds with torus actions whose boundary is a disjoint union of torus orbifolds using a toric topological method. As a result, they show that any orientable locally standard torus orbifold is equivariantly cobordant to some copies of orbifold complex projective spaces. They also discuss some further equivariant cobordism results including the cases when torus orbifolds are actually torus manifolds.
