What does orbifold means? The wikipedia article says it is a generalization of manifolds which looks like a quotient space locally . So if my understanding is correct , If R1 is the Euclidean 1-space and A is an element of R1 and we identify each A with A+2*PI we get a circle so there is an orbifold that looks locally as a circle . Is this correct?
