Formal smoothness of path algebras and connections

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero and $A = kQ$ the path algebra associated with a quiver $Q$. The algebra $A$ is said to be formally smooth over $k$ if $$ \Omega^1_kA = \operatorname{Ker}(\...

Why $k[x,y]$ is not a formally smooth algebra?

We could talk about the formal smoothness of an algebra. See for example Ginzburg's lecture notes For an associative algebra $A$ over a field $k$ we define $$ D(A)=T(A+\bar{A})/(\bar{ab}=a\bar{b}+\bar{...

Smooth affine algebras are Calabi-Yau

Are all smooth affine algebras over a field Calabi-Yau? I'm thinking yes since they satisfy Van den Bergh duality with dualizing module themselves (have I made a mistake in this reasoning)/

Jacobi-Zariski exact sequence question

Denote by $HC(A,M)$ the Hochschild homological complex of an algebra $A$ with coefficients in an $A$-bimodule $M$, and let $B\rightarrow A$ be an $R$-flat extension of $R$-algebras, for some $CRing$ $...

Global dimensions of non-commutative rings

This is related to my previous question: When is a quantum affine space $\mathbb{A}^{n}$ Calabi-Yau? I now would like to know the global dimension of the ring $R=\mathbb{C}\langle x_1,\dots,x_n\rangle/...

A Question on Koszul duality and $B(\infty)$ structures on $HH^*$

The following theorem is known from a paper "Duality in Gerstenhaber Algebras" by Felix, Menichi, Thomas. Given a simply connected space X of finite type. There is an equivalence of Gerstenhaber ...

Finite Homological Dimension of R/P for all P for module finite non-commutative rings

I have a reasonably precise question which I hope is clear enough to get a nice answer. Let R be a Noetherian non-commutative ring which is finite as a module (and flat/free if it helps) over it's ...
