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 give explicit formulae for the continuous Hochschild and cyclic homology and cohomology of certain topological algebras. To this end we show that, for a continuous morphism $\phi: \X\to \Y$ of complexes of complete nuclear $DF$-spaces,…

The quantum field algebra of real scalar fields is shown to be an example of infinite dimensional quantum group. The underlying Hopf algebra is the symmetric algebra S(V) and the product is Wick's normal product. Two coquasitriangular…

Let C be a small category and k a field. There are two interesting mathematical subjects: the category algebra kC and the classifying space |C|=BC. We study the ring homomorphism HH*(kC) --> H*(|C|,k) and prove it is split surjective. This…

The Tamarkin Tsygan calculus of a finite dimensional algebra is a differential calculus given by the comprehensive data of the Hochschild cohomology, its structure both as a graded commutative algebra under the cup product and as a graded…

We prove explicit and elementary formulas for the group homology and cohomology of a finite group with coefficients in any module. We describe in elementary terms the cohomology algebra $H^*(G,k)$ as a graded algebra for a finite group $G$…

We compute the Hochschild-Kostant-Rosenberg decomposition of the Hochschild cohomology of generalised Grassmannians, i.e. partial flag varieties associated to maximal parabolic subgroups in a simple algebraic group. We explain how the…

We compute the Hochschild cohomology algebras of Ringel-self-dual blocks of polynomial representations of $\GL_2$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>2$, that is, of any block whose number of simple modules is a power of…

Commutative Hilbertian Frobenius algebras are those commutative semi-group objects in the monoidal category of Hilbert spaces, for which the Hilbert adjoint of the multiplication satisfies the Frobenius compatibility relation, that is, this…

Let X be a simply connected space and k a commutative ring. Goodwillie, Burghelea and Fiedorowiscz proved that the Hochschild cohomology of the singular chains on the pointed loop space HH^{*}S_*(\Omega X) is isomorphic to the free loop…

We determine the Z-module structure of the preprojective algebra and its zeroth Hochschild homology, for any non-Dynkin quiver (and hence the structure working over any base commutative ring, of any characteristic). This answers (and…

The goal of this article is to compute the Gerstenhaber bracket of the Hochschild cohomology of the Fomin-Kirillov algebra on three generators over a field of characteristic different from $2$ and $3$. This is in part based on a general…

We show that recollements of module categories give rise to homomorphisms between the associated Hochschild cohomology algebras which preserve the strict Gerstenhaber structure, i.e., the cup product, the graded Lie bracket and the squaring…

We describe the Gerstenhaber bracket structure on Hochschild cohomology of Koszul quiver algebras in terms of homotopy lifting maps. There is a projective bimodule resolution of Koszul quiver algebras that admits a comultiplicative…

We apply discrete algebraic Morse theory to calculate the Anick resolution of the group algebra of the group $G_3^2$. As a corollary, we evaluate Hochschild cohomologies of $G_3^2$ with coefficients in all 1-dimensional bimodules. Almost…

A product of cochains in a polyhedral complex is constructed. The multiplication algorithm depends on the choice of a parameter. The parameter is a linear functional on the ambient space. Cocycles form a subring of the ring of cochains,…

We consider a finite group acting on a vector space and the corresponding skew group algebra generated by the group and the symmetric algebra of the space. This skew group algebra illuminates the resulting orbifold and serves as a…
