Let G=Z/rZ be the cyclic group of order r, and let ϖ=e2πi/r denote a primitive r th root of unity. Consider the action of G on Cn via the embedding φ:G↪GLn(C),φ(1)=diag(sϖ,…,ϖ,n−sϖ−1,…,ϖ−1), where 0<s<n. Denote the corresponding GIT quotient by Xs,n,r=Spec((C[z1,…,zn])G). Then the varieties Xs,n,r is a cyclic quotient singularity of type r1(s1,…,1,n−s−1,…,−1). We show that the associated G-Hilbert schemes Ys,n,r are smooth, connected, and irreducible. The natural morphism ρs,n,r:Ys,n,r⟶Xs,n,r is a projective resolution of Xs,n,r, discrepant for n≥3. We establish that the irreducible components of the central fiber ρs,n,r−1(0) are in bijection with the nontrivial characters of G, thereby realizing the classical McKay correspondence in this family of examples. Finally, we describe a canonical choice of this bijection via the Fourier--Mukai type functor Ψ:Db(CohG(Cn))⟶Db(Coh(Ys,n,r)), by showing that, for each nontrivial irreducible representation of G, the corresponding skyscraper sheaf is mapped to a complex whose 0th cohomology is supported on a unique irreducible component of the central fiber ρs,n,r−1(0).
