BPS states, string duality, and nodal curves on K3

Nuclear Physics B, 471, (3), 503-512, 1996.7
We describe the counting of BPS states of Type II on K3 by relating the supersymmetric cycles of genus <i>g</i> to the number of rational curves with <i>g</i> double points on K3. The generating function for the number of such curves is the left-moving partition function of the bosonic string.
