| Popis: | Given a closed symplectic manifold $X$, we construct Gromov-Witten-type invariants valued both in (complex) $K$-theory and in any complex-oriented cohomology theory $\mathbb{K}$ which is $K_p(n)$-local for some Morava $K$-theory $K_p(n)$. We show that these invariants satisfy a version of the Kontsevich-Manin axioms, extending Givental and Lee's work for the quantum $K$-theory of complex projective algebraic varieties. In particular, we prove a Gromov-Witten type splitting axiom, and hence define quantum $K$-theory and quantum $\mathbb{K}$-theory as commutative deformations of the corresponding (generalised) cohomology rings of $X$; the definition of the quantum product involves the formal group of the underlying cohomology theory. The key geometric input to these results is a construction of global Kuranishi charts for moduli spaces of stable maps of arbitrary genus to $X$. On the algebraic side, in order to establish a common framework covering both ordinary $K$-theory and $K_p(n)$-local theories, we introduce a formalism of `counting theories' for enumerative invariants on a category of global Kuranishi charts. Comment: 68 pages, 2 figures. v2 corrects an error in the construction of consistent domain metrics in section 4; the main results and other constructions are unaffected. v3 corrects discussion of forgetful axiom and incorporates referees' corrections and suggestions, including a change in title.
