How can I get the Seiberg-Witten curve from M-theory?
Answers
The SU(nn) 6d (2,0) SCFT, the M5-brane world-volume theory to get N=2N=2 theories. Still, e.g. reading Tachikawa's "Supersymmetric dynamics for pedestrians"...

I know that we can use the SU(n) 6d (2,0) SCFT, the M5-brane world-volume theory to get N=2 theories. Still, e.g. reading Tachikawa's "Supersymmetric dynamics for pedestrians" I cannot understand how one gets the SW curve for say pure N=2 or the theory with Nf=1,2,3,4. Although I kind of understand how to obtain the BPS particles' charges the main part of my question is still a mystery to me. So to repeat: What is exactly the exact mechanism of M-theory (and M5-branes) that gives the (pure for simplicity) N=2 SW curve y2=(x−u)(x−Λ)(x+Λ)? If you don't know the answer, do you know a reference that explicitly describes this point? Of course Witten's paper 9703166 provides a lot of details, but I am mostly looking for the general "spirit" of the solution rather than technical details
