Abstract: F(4) supergravity, the gauge theory of the exceptional six-dimensional Anti-de Sitter superalgebra, is coupled to an arbitrary number of vector multiplets whose scalar components parametrize the quaternionic manifold SO(4,n)/SO(4)imesSO(n). By gauging the compact subgroup SU(2)dotimescG, where SU(2)_d is the diagonal subgroup of SO(4)simeqSU(2)LotimesSU(2)R (the R-symmetry group of six-dimensional Poincar'e supergravity) and cG is a compact group such that dimcG=n, we compute the scalar potential which, besides the gauge coupling constants, also depends in non trivial way on the parameter m associated to a massive 2-form Bmuu of the gravitational multiplet. The potential admits an AdS background for g=3m, as the pure F(4)-supergravity. We compute the scalar squared masses (which are all negative) and retrieve the results dictated by AdS_6/CFT_5 correspondence from the conformal dimensions of boundary operators. The boundary F(4) superconformal fields are realized in terms of a singleton superfield (hypermultiplet) in harmonic superspace with flag manifold SU(2)/U(1)=S^2. We analize the spectrum of short representations in terms of superconformal primaries and predict general features of the K-K specrum of massive type IIA supergravity compactified on warped AdS6otimesS4.
