EP-groupoid basics
A polyfold should be an "M-polyfold with isotropy".
This is implemented via the language of EP-groupoids, which in finite dimensions reduce to orbifolds.
First, recall that a groupoid is a small category in which every morphism is invertible (hence a groupoid with a single object is the same thing as a group).
Now define an EP-groupoid to be a groupoid 
with morphism set 
satisfying these properties:
- (Lie): and are equipped with M-polyfold structures, with respect to which the source, target, multiplication, unit, and inversion maps
are sc-smooth.
- (etale):
and 
are surjective local sc-diffeomorphisms. - (proper): For every
, there exists a neighborhood 
so that 
is proper.
Note that (Lie) makes sense because (etale) hypothesis implies that 
inherits an M-polyfold structure.
Moreover, (proper) implies that each isotropy group 
is finite.
We denote the orbit space by 
.
A polyfold structure on a (paracompact, Hausdorff) space 
is simply 
where is an EP-groupoid and 
is a homeomorphism.
We now illustrate the concept of an EP-groupoid in the following
Example: the EP-groupoid structure of
