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.

abstract
We discuss twisted states of AdS orbifolds which couple to N=2 chiral primary operators not invariant under exchange of the gauge factors. Kaluza-Klein reduction on the fixed circle gives the correct conformal dimensions of operators in the superconformal theory and involves some aspects of monopole dynamics in the non-trivial background. As a byproduct we found evidence for decoupling of U(1) factors in the four-dimensional gauge theory.

Exploring the twisted sector of $\mathbb{Z}_{L}$ orbifolds: Matching $\alpha'$-corrections to localisation
