In orbifold vacua containing an S q {Γ factor, we compute the relative order of scale separation, r, defined as the ratio of the eigenvalue of the lowest-lying Γ-invariant state of the scalar Laplacian on S q , to the eigenvalue of the lowest-lying state. For q " 2 and Γ finite subgroup of SOp3q, or q " 5 and Γ finite subgroup of SU p3q, the maximal relative order of scale separation that can be achieved is r " 21 or r " 12, respectively. For smooth S 5 orbifolds, the maximal relative scale separation is r " 4.2. Methods from invariant theory are very efficient in constructing Γ-invariant spherical harmonics, and can be readily generalized to other orbifolds.
