dc.descriptionFor an orbifold X and $α\in H^3(X, Z)$, we introduce the twisted cohomology $H^*_c(X, α)$ and prove that the Connes-Chern character establishes an isomorphism between the twisted K-groups $K_α^* (X) \otimes C$ and twisted cohomology $H^*_c(X, α)$. This theorem, on the one hand, generalizes a classical result of Baum-Connes, Brylinski-Nistor, and others, that if X is an orbifold then the Chern character establishes an isomorphism between the K-groups of X tensored with C, and the compactly-supported cohomology of the inertia orbifold. On the other hand, it also generalizes a recent result of Adem-Ruan regarding the Chern character isomorphism of twisted orbifold K-theory when the orbifold is a global quotient by a finite group and the twist is a special torsion class, as well as Mathai-Stevenson's theorem regarding the Chern character isomorphism of twisted K-theory of a compact manifold.
