Abstract

Let MM be a closed, oriented manifold. We prove that the quasi-isomorphism class of the Frob0Frob_\infty^0-bialgebra structure on H(M)H^*(M) induced by the open TFT on Ω(M)\Omega^*(M) is a homotopy invariant of the manifold. This is a three step process. First, we describe the Frob0Frob_\infty^0-bialgebra on H(M)H^*(M) induced by the partial Frob0Frob_\infty^0-bialgebra on Ω(M)\Omega^*(M). We then describe the Frob0Frob_\infty^0-bialgebra on H(M)H^*(M) induced by the cyclic CC_\infty-algebra on H(M)H^*(M). Finally, we show these two Frob0Frob_\infty^0-bialgebras are the same. Since the cyclic CC_\infty-algebra is a homotopy invariant, this proves our claim.
