Is there any relation between the simplicial $S^1$ and the Hochschild homology of a noncommutative algebras
Let $k$ be the base field and $A$ be a unital associative $k$-algebra. Let's review the Hochschild homology theory: we have the Hochschild chain comple $C_{\cdot}(A)$ where
$$
C_n(A):=A^{\otimes n+1}
$...

Is there an algebraic "derived mapping space" construction that encompasses both Hochschild homology and loop spaces of non-simply-connected spaces?
I'm looking for directions to the literature that might contain fairly explicit constructions that might be called (the algebra of functions on) the "derived mapping space" from a simplicial set to a ...
