Instanton operators and symmetry enhancement in 5d supersymmetric USp, SO and exceptional gauge theories

Abstract

We study the fermionic zero modes around 1 instanton operators for 5d supersymmetric gauge theories of type USp, SO and the exceptional groups. The major motivation is to try to understand the global symmetry enhancement pattern in these theories.
