References for a certain generalization of Hochschild cohomology?

Let $C$ be an algebra. Let $E = C^{\otimes 2n}$ be the tensor product (over the ground field) of $2n$ copies of $C$. [EDIT: Or better, $E = C\otimes C^{op}\otimes C\otimes C^{op}\cdots\otimes C \...

Relation between Gerstenhaber bracket and Connes differential

Let $C$ be an arbitrary algebra (more generally, a linear 1-category). The following structures are well-known: A degree-0 product on the Hochschild cohomology $HH^*(C)$ $$ HH^*(C) \otimes HH^*(C) \...

Can we compute the Hochschild cohomology for $k[x]$ through the Hochschild complex?

For an algebra $A$ we can define its Hochschild cohomology $HH^{\bullet}(A,A)$ as in this wikipedia page. Now let $A=k[x]$ be the polynomial ring where $k$ is a field. It is well-known that $HH^{0}(A,...

Hochschild homology computation of certain type

I know that in general Hochschild homology is not very computable. However, this certain type of Hoshschild homology shows up and I feel like there could be existing result. Let $k$ be a field and $A$ ...
