On algebraic structures of the Hochschild complex
Abstract
We first review various known algebraic structures on the Hochschild (co)homology of a differential graded algebras under weak Poincar{\'e} duality hypothesis, such as Calabi-Yau algebras, derived Poincar{\'e} duality algebras and closed Frobenius algebras. This includes a BV-algebra structure on or , which in the latter case is an extension of the natural Gerstenhaber structure on . As an example, after proving that the chain complex of the Moore loop space of a manifold is a CY-algebra and using Burghelea-Fiedorowicz-Goodwillie theorem we obtain a BV-structure on the homology of the free space. In Sections 6 we prove that these BV/coBVstructures can be indeed defined for the Hochschild homology of a symmetric open Frobenius DG-algebras. In particular we prove that the Hochschild homology and cohomology of a symmetric open Frobenius algebra is a BV and coBV-algebra. In Section 7 we exhibit a BV structure on the shifted relative Hochschild homology of a symmetric commutative Frobenius algebra. The existence of a BV-structure on the relative Hochschild homology was expected in the light of Chas-Sullivan and Goresky-Hingston results for free loop spaces. In Section 8 we present an action of Sullivan diagrams on the Hochschild (co)chain complex of a closed Frobenius DG-algebra. This recovers Tradler-Zeinalian \cite{TZ} result for closed Froebenius algebras using the isomorphism .
