The Hochschild cohomology of a tensor product of algebras is isomorphic to a graded tensor product of Hochschild cohomology algebras, as a Gerstenhaber algebra. A similar result holds when the tensor product is twisted by a bicharacter. We…

We study functors underlying derived Hochschild cohomology, also called Shukla cohomology, of a commutative algebra S essentially of finite type and of finite flat dimension over a commutative noetherian ring K. We construct a complex of…

In this work, we propose a novel approach to the homotopy transfer procedure starting from a set of homotopy data such that the first differential complex is a differential graded module over the second one. We show that the module…

Let G be a compact, simple and simply connected Lie group and $\A$ be an equivariant Dixmier-Douady bundle over G. For any fixed level k, we can define a G-C*-algebra $C_{\A^{k+h}}(G)$ as all the continuous sections of the tensor power…

Let $M$ be any compact simply-connected $d$-dimensional smooth manifold and let $\mathbb{F}$ be any field. We show that the Gerstenhaber algebra structure on the Hochschild cohomology on the singular cochains of $M$, $HH^*(S^*(M);S^*(M))$,…

We show that any homotopy Gerstenhaber algebra is naturally a strongly homotopy commutative (shc) algebra in the sense of Stasheff-Halperin with a homotopy associative structure map. In the presence of certain additional operations…

We determine the algebra structure of the Hochschild cohomology of the singular cochain algebra with coefficients in a field on a space whose cohomology is a polynomial algebra. A spectral sequence calculation of the Hochschild cohomology…

We prove the graded braided commutativity of the Hochschild cohomology of $A$ with trivial coefficients, where $A$ is a braided Hopf algebra in the category of Yetter-Drinfeld modules over the group algebra of an abelian group, under some…

We show that the braided Hochschild cohomology, of an algebra in a suitably algebraic braided monoidal category, admits a graded ring structure under which it is braided commutative. We then give a canonical identification between the usual…

This is the second in a series of papers on a new equivariant cohomology that takes values in a vertex algebra. In an earlier paper, the first two authors gave a construction of the cohomology functor on the category of O(sg) algebras. The…

A classical theorem of Scheunert on $G$-color Lie algebras, asserts in the case of finitely generated abelian groups, one can twist the algebra structure and the commutation bicharacter on $G$ by a 2-cocycle twist to a super-Lie $G$ graded,…

In this article, we use Harrison cohomology to provide a framework for commutative deformations. In particular, Kontsevich's result that formality of (the Hochschild complex of) an associative algebra implies its deformability is adapted…

We study some formality criteria for differential graded algebras over differential graded operads. This unifies and generalizes other known approaches like the ones by Manetti and Kaledin. In particular, we construct general operadic…

In this article, we apply the recently developed theory of transfer systems to study the relationship between $G$-equivariant linear isometries and infinite little discs operads, for a finite group $G$. This framework allows us to reduce…

We apply the theory of operadic Koszul duality to provide a cofibrant resolution of the colored operad whose algebras are prefactorization algebras on a fixed space M. his allows us to describe a notion of prefactorization algebra up to…

We define the secondary Hochschild complex for an entwining structure over a commutative $k$-algebra $B$. We show that this complex carries the structure of a weak comp algebra. We obtain two distinct cup product structures for the…
