In this note we show how to construct a homotopy BV-algebra on the algebra of differential forms over a higher Poisson manifold. The Lie derivative along the higher Poisson structure provides the generating operator.

The solution of Deligne's conjecture on Hochschild cochains and the formality of the operad of little disks provide us with a natural homotopy Gerstenhaber algebra structure on the Hochschild cochains of an associative algebra. In this…

We prove that the BRST complex of a topological conformal field theory is a homotopy Gerstenhaber algebra, as conjectured by Lian and Zuckerman in 1992. We also suggest a refinement of the original conjecture for topological vertex operator…

We determine the Gerstenhaber structure on the Hochschild cohomology ring of a class of self-injective special biserial algebras. Each of these algebras is presented as a quotient of the path algebra of a certain quiver. In degree one, we…

A sequence $\{\delta_n^{(k)}\}$ associated to a Bochner differential operator is introduced as an effective tool to study this kind of operators. Some properties of this sequence are proven and used to deduce that a particular operator…

Given a differential graded (dg) symmetric Frobenius algebra $A$ we construct an unbounded complex $\mathcal{D}^{*}(A,A)$, called the Tate-Hochschild complex, which arises as a totalization of a double complex having Hochschild chains as…

This is my diploma thesis in german language. In the context of formal deformation theorie of assoziative observables in classical field theory I consider the symmetric algebra S(V) on an arbitrary-dimensional R- or C-vectorspace V as a…

Using non-commutative differential forms, we construct a complex called singular Hochschild cochain complex for any associative algebra over a field. The cohomology of this complex is isomorphic to the Tate-Hochschild cohomology in the…

By using algebraic tools from differential Gerstenhaber algebras and Batalin-Vilkobisky algebras, we provide a new perspective on the modular class in Poisson geometry and the intrinsic biderivation of a Lie bialgebra. Furthermore,…

A binary expression in terms of operators is given which satisfies all the quantum counterparts of the algebraic properties of the classical antibracket. This quantum antibracket has therefore the same relation to the classical antibracket…

In this paper, we study the Batalin-Vilkovisky structure on the Hochschild cohomology of quantum zigzag algebras $A_{q}$ of type $\widetilde{\mathbf{A}}_{1}$. We first calculate the dimensions of Hochschild homology groups and Hochschild…

We dualise the classical fact that an operad with multiplication leads to cohomology groups which form a Gerstenhaber algebra to the context of cooperads: as a result, a cooperad with comultiplication induces a homology theory that is…

A diagram of algebras is a functor valued in a category of associative algebras. I construct an operad acting on the Hochschild bicomplex of a diagram of algebras. Using this operad, I give a direct proof that the Hochschild cohomology of a…

Given a simple, simply laced, complex Lie algebra $\bfg$ corresponding to the Lie group $G$, let $\bfnp$ be the subalgebra generated by the positive roots. In this paper we construct a BV-algebra $\fA[\bfg]$ whose underlying graded…

We give a full description of the $BV$-structure on the Hochschild cohomology of exceptional local algebras of quaternion type, defined by parameters $(k,0,d)$ in case of even parameter $k \geqslant 3$, according to Erdmann's…

Let V be a simple vertex operator algebra and G a finite automorphism group. Then there is a natural right G-action on the set of all inequivalent irreducible V-modules. Let S be a finite set of inequivalent irreducible V-modules which is…

The question of vanishing of the BV operator on the cohomology of the moduli space of Riemann surfaces is investigated. The BV structure, which comprises a BV operator and an antibracket, is identified, vanishing theorems are proven, and a…

We prove that the shifted Hochschild chain complex $C\_*(A,A)[m]$ of a symmetric open Frobenius algebra $A$ of degree $m$ has a natural homotopy coBV-algebra structure. As a consequence $HH\_*(A,A)[m]$ and $HH^*(A,A^\vee)[-m]$ are…

Let TA denote the space underlying the tensor algebra of a vector space A. In this short note, we show that if A is a differential graded algebra, then TA is a differential Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra. Moreover, if A is an A-infinity…

Let $X$ be a compact, oriented, second countable pseudomanifold. We show that $HH^\ast_\bullet(\widetilde N^\ast_\bullet(X;\mathbb{Q}))$, the Hochschild cohomology of the blown-up intersection cochain complex of $X$, is well defined and…
