Abstract: We prove that for a sufficiently ample line bundle $L$ on a surface $S$, the number of $delta$-nodal curves in a general $delta$-dimensional linear system is given by a universal polynomial of degree $delta$ in the four numbers $L^2,,L.K_S,,K_S^2$ and $c_2(S)$. The technique is a study of Hilbert schemes of points on curves on a surface, using the BPS calculus of [PT3] and the computation of tautological integrals on Hilbert schemes by Ellingsrud, G"ottsche and Lehn. We are also able to weaken the ampleness required, from G"ottsche's $(5delta-1)$-very ample to $delta$-very ample.
