On semisimplicity of quantum cohomology of $\mathbb P^1$-orbifolds

Abstract: For a $\mathbb P^1$-orbifold $\mathscr C$, we prove that its big quantum cohomology is generically semisimple. As a corollary, we verify a conjecture of Dubrovin for orbi-curves. We also show that the small quantum cohomology of $\mathscr C$ is generically semisimple iff $\mathscr C$ is Fano, i.e. it has positive orbifold Euler characteristic.
