Resolution of symplectic cyclic orbifold singularities

Abstract

In this paper we present a method to obtain resolutions of symplectic orbifolds arising as quotients of pre-symplectic semi-free S1-actions. This includes, in particular, all orbifolds arising from symplectic reduction of Hamiltonian S1-manifolds at regular values, as well as all isolated cyclic orbifold singularities. As an application, we show that pre-quantisations of symplectic orbifolds are symplectically fillable by a smooth manifold.
