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 $R$-...

How to compute the periodic cyclic homology of this algebra

Let $k=\mathbb{C}$ be the field of complex numbers. I consider the (DG) algebra $A:=k[x]/(x^2)$ such that $\deg(x)=-1$. My question is how to compute the periodic cyclic homology, Hochschild homology ...

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:=...

Morphisms of Hochschild (or cyclic) homology induced by homotopic maps

Let $f$ and $g$ be two maps between DG algebras $A$ and $B$, and assume that $f$ and $g$ are homotopic as chain maps, hence they induce the same map on the level of homology. Moreover, $f$ and $g$ ...

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 ...

$\mathrm{HH}$ and $\mathrm{HC}$ as two different Taylor expansions at the same point

Let us consider the functors from dg algebras to graded spaces given by Hochshcild homology and cyclic homology. Then it is well known that in degree $0$, both functors are given by $A\longmapsto A/[A,...

Algebraic models of non-simply connected spaces in string topology

I want to find some algebraic models relating string topology to Hochschild and cyclic homologies. If the space $X$ is simply-connected and we are working over rational numbers, we can use Sullivan ...

Failure of periodic cyclic homology to be a localizing invariant

A localizing invariant $E: dgcat_{sm} \rightarrow Ch_k$ from small dg categories to chain complexes over a field $k$ (say $k = \mathbb{C}$) is a dg functor which sends localization sequences to exact ...

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,\,...

On cyclic homology of Ginzburg's DG algebra

Let $(Q,W)$ be a quiver with potential, and $D$ be Ginzburg's DG algebra associated to it (as explained in http://arxiv.org/abs/math/0612139 and other places), so that it is a 3-Calabi-Yau algebra. I ...
