The number of rational curves on K3 surfaces

Algebraic Geometry 2007-05-23 v2

Abstract

Let X be a K3 surface with a primitive ample divisor H, and let β=2[H]H2(X,Z)\beta=2[H]\in H_2(X, \mathbf Z). We calculate the Gromov-Witten type invariants nβn_{\beta} by virtue of Euler numbers of some moduli spaces of stable sheaves. Eventually, it verifies Yau-Zaslow formula in the non primitive class β\beta.
