Severi degree N(n, delta) is the number of degree n plane curves which have delta nodes and pass through a generic configuration of n*(n+3)/2-delta points on the plane. delta is called the cogenus of these curves. See Fomin and Mikhalkin (2010), Section 1.2 "Combinatorial rules for Gromov-Witten invariants and Severi degrees" and 5 "Node polynomials". - Andrey Zabolotskiy, Jan 18 2021

In this entry and in A171104, a multicomponent Gromov-Witten invariant is the number of (possibly reducible, hence "multicomponent") curves in CP^2 of degree n and genus g passing through given 3n-1+g points, so this is the Severi degree N(n, delta) where cogenus delta = (n-1)*(n-2)/2 - g, cf. A171108 and references therein. In particular, a(5) = A171116(5). - Andrey Zabolotskiy, May 04 2022
