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 \...

A characterisation of symmetric algebras using Hochschild (co)homology
A finite dimensional (connected if needed) $K$-algebra $A$ over a field $K$ is called symmetric when $A \cong Hom_K(A,K)$ as $A$-bimodules. Symmetric algebras are Frobenius algebras and include for ...

Does a morphism which induces an isomorphism between Hochschild homology also induce an isomorphism between cyclic homology?
In a 1998 paper by B. Keller, the author consider the following problem in Section 1.4: Let $k$ be a commutative ring and $X$ a scheme over $k$. We can consider the cyclic homology as well as the ...

Why is Hochschild homology interesting if its cohomology groups are infinite-dimensional?
I am trying to understand Hochschild homology, in particular the Hochschild–Kostant–Rosenberg theorem. As far as I understand this result gives an isomorphism between the algebraic (Kähler) ...

Definitions of Hochschild Cohomology $HH^{\bullet}(A)$
Let $A$ be an associative unital $k$-algebra, and let $M$ be a bimodule of $A$. The Hochschild cohomology of $A$ with coefficients in $M$ can be defined as
$$HH^{n}(A,\,M)=\mathrm{Ext}^{n}_{A^{e}}(A,\,...

What is the geometric interpretation of the first Hochschild homology group of path algebra constructed from a directed graph?
Let $\mathcal{G} = (V, E, s, t)$ is a directed graph, where $V$ - the set of its vertices, $E$ - the set of its edges, $s: E \rightarrow V, s((v_1, v_2)) = v_1$ and $t: E \rightarrow V, s((v_1, v_2)) =...

Inner automorphisms acts as identity on Hochschild homology
Let $A$ be a unital algebra and $u \in A$ be an invertible element. Let us consider $u_n(a_0 \otimes a_1 \otimes ... \otimes a_n):=ua_0u^{-1} \otimes ua_1u^{-1} \otimes ... \otimes ua_nu^{-1}$. Then $(...

Hochschild homology of a tensor algebra modulo a two-sided ideal
Let $V$ is a module over a field $k$, and $A=T(V)$ the tensor algebra generated by $V$. The Hochschild homology $HH_*(A)$ has been determined by Loday and Quillen in their paper "Cyclic homology and ...

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 $A$ ...

Even and odd part of the Hochschild and cyclic homology of a super-algebra
Let $A$ be a $\mathbb Z_2$-graded $k$-algebra, where $k$ is a field of characteristic $0$. Then we know that the tensor product of $A$ with itself is also $\mathbb Z_2$-graded by
$$(A\otimes_k A)_0:=...

Tor functor in the case of algebra of smooth functions
Let $A=C^{\infty}(\mathbb{S}^{1})$, let $B$ be the sub-algebra $C^{\infty}(0,1)$. Here we identify $\mathbb{S}^{1}$ by $\mathbb{R}/2\pi \mathbb{Z}$. I want to ask if there is a way I can decompose $A$ ...

Example H-unital algebra which is not unital
What is an example of an algebra which is H-unital (that is its Bar complex is acyclic) and yet it is not unital?
