Cyclic homology with coefficients in a bimodule
I've recently been trying to understand Hochschild and cyclic co/homology better, and I've noticed that while it's common to define the Hochschild homology $\mathrm{HH}_{\bullet}(A;M)$ of an $R$-...

Topological Hochschild homology of Azumaya algebra
Let $R$ be a commutative ring, let $A$ be an Azumaya algebra over $R$, does its topological Hochschild homology coincide with that of $R$? For example, let $\mathbb{H}$ be the quaternion algebra over ...

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 ...

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) ...

Hochschild homology and change of non-ground ring
Let $k$ be a field, $R$ is a commutative algebra over $k$ and $A$ is an associative algebra over $R$. There is a morphism of commutative algebras $R \to T$. Is it possible to reduce calculation of ...

Universal bimodule for homotopy biderivations
Recall the commutative story: for a commutative algebra $A$, its module of differentials $\Omega (A)$ is characterized by the universal property that any derivation $\delta \colon A \to M$ is in a ...

intuition for hochschild homology
According to this post Intuition for group homology, I wonder what is the intuition for Hochschild homology.
The Hochschild homology is defined as the homology of this complex
chain.
Given a ...

Hochschild homology of a category of modules over an algebra
Suppose $A$ is an algebra over some field, say the complex numbers if that helps. Then we can consider the category $\mathbf{C}_A$ of finite-dimensional modules over $A$.
This category can be seen as ...

Hochschild homology and Chern character quiver with potential
I am a beginner in quiver theory so this question might not be suitable for mathoverflow.
Let $(Q,W)$ be a quiver with potential and let $\Gamma$ be the Ginzburg DG-algebra associated to $(Q,W)$. Is ...

Variant of co-Tor in a bimodule category
Say $\mathcal{C}$ is a strict monoidal abelian category and $A$ is a coalgebra object in $\mathcal{C}$, with left co-modules $M$ and right co-module $N$ (also in $\mathcal{C}$). Then we have a notion ...

Slick construction of Hochschild complex
Let $R$ be a $k$-algebra and $M$ be an $(R,R)$-bimodule. Let $[n] \mapsto M \otimes R^{\otimes n}$ be the simplicial $k$-module which defines the Hochschild homology $H_*(R,M)$. Is it possible to ...

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,\,...

When does Hochschild homology commute with infinite products?
Let $A$ be an associative algebra. Its zeroth Hochschild homology $\mathrm{HH}_0(A)$ is the cokernel of the linear map $A^{\wedge 2} \to A$, $a \wedge b \mapsto ab - ba$. I.e. you quotient the ...

Does anyone recognize this quiver-with-relations?
Below I describe an infinite (but locally finite) quiver with relations. My question is whether anyone recognizes it and can provide appropriate pointers to the literature. I'm mainly interested in ...
