We will consider P-graph complexes, where P is a cyclic operad. P-graph
complexes are natural generalizations of Kontsevich's graph complexes -- for P
= the operad for associative algebras it is the complex of ribbon graphs, for P
= the operad for commutative associative algebras, the complex of all graphs.
We construct a `universal class' in the cohomology of the graph complex with
coefficients in a theory. The Kontsevich-type invariant is then an evaluation,
on a concrete cyclic algebra, of this class. We also explain some results of M.
Penkava and A. Schwarz on the construction of an invariant from a cyclic
deformation of a cyclic algebra. Our constructions are illustrated by a `toy
model' of tree complexes.Comment: LaTeX 2.09 + article12pt,leqno style, 10 page
