abstract
We explore the properties of five-dimensional supersymmetric gauge theories living on $5$-brane webs in orientifold $5$-plane backgrounds. This allows constructing quiver gauge theories with alternating $USp(2N)$ and $SO(N)$ gauge groups with fundamental matter, and thus leads to the existence of new $5d$ fixed point theories. The web description can be further used to study non-perturbative phenomena such as enhancement of symmetry and duality. We further suggest that one can use these systems to engineer $5d$ $SO$ group with spinor matter. We present evidence for this claim.

Dimer graphs are constructed for relativistic Toda chains of listed Lie algebra types, and Seiberg-Witten curves of 5d N=1 pure SYM for group G are identified as spectral curves of the dual Toda chain for G^vee.
Blow-up equation prefactors encode cubic 1-form self-anomalies and mixed anomalies of 5d N=1 SCFTs, deciding 2-group vs mixed anomaly structure.
The distinction between spinor and conjugate spinor matter in 5D SO(2N) gauge theories manifests as different boundary conditions on the Seiberg-Witten curve at O5-plane positions (w=±1).
