We study the relation between 5D super Yang-Mills theory and the holographicdescription of 6D (2,0) superconformal theory. We start by clarifying someissues related to the localization of N=1 SYM with matter on $S^5$. Weconcentrate on the case of a single adjoint hypermultiplet with a mass term andargue that the theory has a symmetry enlargement at mass M=1/(2r), where r isthe $S^5$ radius. However, in order to have a well-defined localization locusit is necessary to rotate M onto the imaginary axis, breaking the enlargedsymmetry. Based on our prescription, the imaginary mass values are physical andwe show how the localized path integral is consistent with earlier results for5D SYM in flat space. We then compute the free energy and the expectation valuefor a circular Wilson loop in the large N limit. The Wilson loop calculationshows a mass dependent constant rescaling between weak and strong coupling. TheWilson loop continued back to to the enlarged symmetry point is consistent witha supergravity computation for an M2 brane using the standard identification ofthe compactification radius and the 5D coupling. If we continue back to thephysical regime and use this value of the mass to determine thecompactification radius, then we find agreement between the SYM free energy andthe corresponding supergravity calculation. We also verify numerically some ofour analytic approximations.
