Severi degrees on toric surfaces

From MaRDI portal

Abstract: Ardila and Block used tropical results of Brugalle and Mikhalkin to count nodal curves on a certain family of toric surfaces. Building on a linearity result of the first author, we revisit their work in the context of the Goettsche-Yau-Zaslow formula for counting nodal curves on arbitrary smooth surfaces, addressing several questions they raised by proving stronger versions of their main theorems. In the process, we give new combinatorial formulas for the coefficients arising in the Goettsche-Yau-Zaslow formulas, and give correction terms arising from rational double points in the relevant family of toric surfaces.
