Using the description of the category of quasi-coherent sheaves on a root stack given in the paper of N. Borne and A. Vistoli, we study the G-theory of root stacks via localisation methods. We apply our results to the study of equivariant K-theory of algebraic varieties under certain conditions.
Let $X$ be a smooth projective geometrically connected curve over a finite field with function field $K$. Let $\G$ be a connected semisimple group scheme over $X$. Under certain hypothesis we prove the equality of two numbers associated with $\G$. The first is an arithmetic invariant, its Tamagawa number. The second, is a geometric invariant, the number of connected components of the moduli stack of $\G$-torsors on $X$.
