abstract
We introduce a new class of non-compact backgrounds of Type IIB string theory preserving eight supercharges by combining S-folds and non-perturbative 7-branes wrapping orbifolds, and study the four-dimensional superconformal field theories arising at low energy on $D3$-branes probing them. We draw a precise correspondence between this setup and the torus compactification of six-dimensional orbi-instanton theories with a Stiefel-Whitney twist, and use it to determine the main features of such strongly-coupled systems, like central charges, spectra of Coulomb-branch operators, networks of Higgs-branch flows. Finally, with the aim to improve our understanding of the landscape of $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal field theories, and possibly to extend their classification beyond rank two, we provide a detailed catalogue of all the rank-three theories that our framework gives access to.

A Pathway to Decay and Fission of Orthosymplectic Quiver Theories
An orthosymplectic extension of the Decay and Fission algorithm is proposed, validated on class S and 6d orbi-instanton quivers, and used to predict new Higgs branch RG flows.

A Bound on 3d Mirror Pairs
New 3d mirror pairs are proposed for ABCD-type quivers with mixed U/SU nodes, and it is conjectured that unitary quivers containing exceptional affine Dynkin subquivers have no Lagrangian quiver mirror.
