abstract
Effective field theories in type I and II superstring theories for D-branes located at points in the orbifold C^2/Z_n are supersymmetric gauge theories whose field content is conveniently summarized by a `quiver diagram,' and whose Lagrangian includes non-metric couplings to the orbifold moduli: in particular, twisted sector moduli couple as Fayet-Iliopoulos terms in the gauge theory. These theories describe D-branes on resolved ALE spaces. Their spaces of vacua are moduli spaces of smooth ALE metrics and Yang-Mills instantons, whose metrics are explicitly computable. For U(N) instantons, the construction exactly reproduces results of Kronheimer and Nakajima.

D2-brane probes of non-toric cDV threefolds are described by N=2 deformations of 3d N=4 affine Dynkin quivers using polynomial and monopole superpotentials, with 3d mirror symmetry reproducing the known quiver-collapsing mechanism.
For generic Z_L orbifolds, naive reduction of the 10d (α')^3 correction fails to match localisation results for twisted half-BPS correlators except at special L values; expanding a twisted Virasoro-Shapiro amplitude recovers the correct coefficients by accounting for twisted sector resonances.
Neural networks classify Seiberg dual classes on Z_m x Z_n orbifolds with R^2=0.988 and predict toric multiplicities for Y^{6,0} with mean absolute error 0.021 under fixed Kasteleyn representative.

Exploring the twisted sector of $\mathbb{Z}_{L}$ orbifolds: Matching $\alpha'$-corrections to localisation
For generic Z_L orbifolds, naive reduction of the 10d (α')^3 correction fails to match localisation results for twisted half-BPS correlators except at special L values; expanding a twisted Virasoro-Shapiro amplitude recovers the correct coefficients by accounting for twisted sector resonances.
