Differential forms, open-closed maps, and Gromov-Witten axioms

Abstract

We construct open-closed maps on various versions of Hochschild and cyclic homology of the Fukaya $A_{\infty }$ algebra of a Lagrangian submanifold modeled on differential forms. The $A_{\infty }$ algebra may be curved. Properties analogous to Gromov-Witten axioms are verified. The paper is written with applications in mind to gravitational descendants and obstruction theory.
