Abstract

Extending the method of Part I (alg-geom/9704004), we give recursive formulae for: the genus-1 Severi degree (formula first found by Getzler), the degree of the variety of 1-cuspidal curves of genus 0 or 1, and the linear (sectional) geometric genus of the genus-0 and genus-1 Severi varieties. The proof is short and elementary.
