A note on cohomology of Clifford algebras

Algebraic Topology 2022-12-19 v3

Abstract

In this article we construct a cochain complex of a complex Clifford algebra with coefficients in itself in a combinatorial fashion and we call the corresponding cohomology by {\it Clifford cohomology.} We show that {\it Clifford cohomology} controls the deformation of a complex Clifford algebra and can classify them up to Morita equivalence. We also study Hochschild cohomology groups and formal deformations of the algebra of smooth sections of a complex Clifford algebra bundle over an even dimensional orientable Riemannian manifold MM which admits a SpincSpin^{c} structure.
