Tangential quantum cohomology of arbitrary order

Abstract

Kock has previously defined a tangency quantum product on formal power series with coefficients in the cohomology ring of any smooth projective variety, and thus a ring that generalizes the quantum cohomology ring. We further generalize Kock's construction by defining a dth-order contact product and establishing its associativity.
