D-branes can end on orbifold planes if the action of the orbifold group includes (−1)FL . We consider configurations of D-branes ending on such orbifolds and study the low-energy theory on their worldvolume. We apply our results to gauge theories with eight supercharges in three and four dimensions. We explain how mirror symmetry for N = 4 d = 3 gauge theories with gauge group Sp(k) and matter ...
