A bstract We propose new five-dimensional gauge theory descriptions of six-
dimensional\(\mathcal {N}\)=(1, 0) superconformal field theories arising from type IIA brane …

We propose a new topological vertex formalism for a type IIB (p, q) 5-brane web with an O5-
plane. We apply our proposal to five-dimensional N= 1 Sp (1) gauge theory with N f= 0, 1, 8 …

The Thesis comprises work done at SISSA (Trieste) and UAM (Madrid) under supervision of
