Abstract
In this article we will examine a "generalized topological sigma model." This so-called "generalized topological sigma model" is the M-Theoretic analog of the standard topological sigma model of string theory. We find that the observables of the theory are elements in the cohomology ring of the moduli space of supersymmetric maps; in addition, we find that the correlation functions of such observables allow us to compute non-perturbative corrections to the four-fermion terms present in M-Theory on a six-dimensional Calabi-Yau.
