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 ...

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) ...

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,\,...

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 ...

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 $R$-...

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 ...

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?
