Complete prepotential for 5d $\mathcal{N}=1$ superconformal field theories

Abstract

For any 5d $\mathcal{N}=1$ superconformal field theory, we propose a "complete" prepotential which reduces to the perturbative prepotential for any of its possible gauge theory realizations, manifests its global symmetry when written in terms of the invariant Coulomb branch parameters, and is valid for the whole parameter region. As concrete examples, we consider $SU(2)$ gauge theories with up to 7 flavors, $Sp(2)$ gauge theories with up to 9 flavors, and $Sp(2)$ gauge theories with 1 antisymmetric tensor and up to 7 flavors, as well as their dual gauge theories.
