The talk is based on a common work with D. Bergh, M. Larsen, and V. Lunts. Given a variety with a finite group action, we compare categorical measures of the corresponding quotient stack and the extended quotient. Using weak factorization for orbifolds, we show that for a wide range of cases, these two measures coincide. This implies, in particular, a conjecture of Galkin and Shinder on categorical and motivic zeta-functions of varieties. We provide examples showing that, in general, these two measures are not equal.
