Partial Groupoid Actions: Globalization, Morita Theory, and Galois Theory

In this article, we introduce the notion of a partial action of a groupoid on a ring as well as we give a criteria for the existence of a globalization of it. We construct a Morita context associated to a globalizable partial groupoid action, and we introduce the notion of a partial Galois extension, which is related to the strictness of this context.
