Enumeration of $n$-fold tangent hyperplanes to a surface



Abstract: For each 1leqnleq6 we present formulas for the number of n−nodal curves in an n−dimensional linear system on a smooth, projective surface. This yields in particular the numbers of rational curves in the system of hyperplane sections of a generic K3−surface imbedded in p{n} by a complete system of curves of genus n as well as the number {�f17,601,000} of rational ({em singular}) plane quintic curves in a generic quintic threefold.
