We present a systematic derivation of multi-instanton amplitudes in terms ofADHM equivariant cohomology. The results rely on a supersymmetric formulationof the localization formula for equivariant forms. We examine the cases of N=4and N=2 gauge theories with adjoint and fundamental matter.Comment: 29 pages, one more reference adde
