Holomorphic Morse inequalities for orbifolds

We prove that Demailly’s holomorphic Morse inequalities hold true for complex orbifolds by using a heat kernel method. Then we introduce the class of Moishezon orbifolds and as an application of our inequalties, we give a geometric criterion for a compact connected orbifold to be a Moishezon orbifolds, thus generalizing Siu’s and Demailly’s answers to the Grauert-Riemenschneider conjecture to the orbifold case.
