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 ...

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} $...

Defining Hochschild homology of non-commutative DG-algebras with animated rings with a circle action

A cool construction of Hochschild homology (that I saw on B. Antieau's website here ) is the following: Let $k$ be a commutative ring, then denote by $\mathfrak{a}\text{CAlg}_k$ the category of ...

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 ...
