abstract
Elliptic curves for the 7-brane configurations realizing the affine Lie algebras $\wh E_n$ $(1 \leq n \leq 8)$ and $\wh{\wt E}_n$ $(n=0,1)$ are systematically derived from the cubic equation for a rational elliptic surface. It is then shown that the $\wh E_n$ 7-branes describe the discriminant locus of the elliptic curves for five-dimensional (5D) N=1 $E_n$ theories compactified on a circle. This is in accordance with a recent construction of 5D N=1 $E_n$ theories on the IIB 5-brane web with 7-branes, and indicates the validity of the D3 probe picture for 5D $E_n$ theories on $\bR^4 \times S^1$. Using the $\wh E_n$ curves we also study the compactification of 5D $E_n$ theories to four dimensions.

On classification of rank two theories with eight supercharges Part III: Seiberg-Witten geometry
The abstract claims rank-two Seiberg-Witten geometries can be systematized via one-parameter curve families y^2 = f(x,t), with f fixed by singular fibers at t = infinity.
