On Hochschild cohomology rings of Fibonacci algebras

Let Λ be a Fibonacci algebra over a field k. The multiplication of Hochschild cohomology ring of Λ induced by the Yoneda product is described explicitly. As a consequence, the multiplicative structure of Hochschild cohomology ring of Λ is proved to be trivial.     

A family of Koszul self-injective algebras with finite Hochschild cohomology

This paper presents an infinite family of Koszul self-injective algebras whose Hochschild cohomology ring is finite-dimensional. Moreover, for each $N?5$ we give an example where the Hochschild cohomology ring has dimension $N$. This family of algebras includes and generalizes the 4-dimensional Koszul self-injective local algebras of [R.-O. Buchweitz, E.L. Green, D. Madsen, Ø. Solberg, Finite Hochschild cohomology without finite global dimension, Math. Res. Lett. 12 (2005) 805–816] which were used to give a negative answer to Happel’s question, in that they have infinite global dimension but finite-dimensional Hochschild cohomology.     

On Hochschild Cohomology of a Self-injective Special Biserial Algebra Obtained by a Circular Quiver with Double Arrows

We calculate the dimensions of the Hochschild cohomology groups of a self-injective special biserial algebra Λ _s obtained by a circular quiver with double arrows. Moreover, we give a presentation of the Hochschild cohomology ring modulo nilpotence of Λ _s by generators and relations. This result shows that the Hochschild cohomology ring modulo nilpotence of Λ _s is finitely generated as an algebra.     

Hochschild cohomology of ? n -Galois coverings of an algebra

We consider the ? _n -Galois covering ?? _n of the algebra A introduced by F. Xu [Adv. Math., 2008, 219: 1872?C1893]. We calculate the dimensions of all Hochschild cohomology groups of ?? _n and give the ring structure of the Hochschild cohomology ring modulo nilpotence. As a conclusion, we provide a class of counterexamples to Snashall-Solberg??s conjecture.

本文利用组合的方法, 详细地计算了一类量子Koszul 代数Λ_q (q ∈ k \{0}) 的各阶Hochschild 上同调空间的维数, 清晰地刻划了代数Λ_q 的Hochschild 上同调的cup 积, 确定了代数Λ_q 的Hochschild上同调环HH^*(Λ_q) 模去幂零元生成的理想N 的结构, 证明了当q 为单位根时, HH^*(Λ_q)/N 作为代数不是有限生成的, 从而为Snashall-Solberg 猜想(即HH^*(Λ)/N 作为代数是有限生成的) 提供了更多反例.     

Hochschild cohomology ring modulo nilpotence of a one point extension of a quiver algebra defined by two cycles and a quantum-like relation

We consider a one point extension algebra B of a quiver algebra A _q over a field k defined by two cycles and a quantum-like relation depending on a nonzero element q in k. We determine the Hochschild cohomology ring of B modulo nilpotence and show that if q is a root of unity, then B is a counterexample to Snashall-Solberg’s conjecture.     

The global decomposition theorem for Hochschild (co-)homology of singular spaces via the Atiyah-Chern character

We generalize the decomposition theorem of Hochschild, Kostant and Rosenberg for Hochschild (co-)homology to arbitrary morphisms between complex spaces or schemes over a field of characteristic zero. To be precise, we show that for each such morphism X→Y, the Hochschild complex HX/Y, as introduced in [R.-O. Buchweitz, H. Flenner, Global Hochschild (co-)homology of singular spaces, Adv. Math. (2007), doi: 10.1016/j.aim.2007.06.012], decomposes naturally in the derived category D(X) into _⊕p?0Sp(LX/Y[1]), the direct sum of the derived symmetric powers of the shifted cotangent complex, a result due to Quillen in the affine case.Even in the affine case, our proof is new and provides further information. It shows that the decomposition is given explicitly and naturally by the universal Atiyah-Chern character, the exponential of the universal Atiyah class.We further use the decomposition theorem to show that the semiregularity map for perfect complexes factors through Hochschild homology and, in turn, factors the Atiyah-Hochschild character through the characteristic homomorphism from Hochschild cohomology to the graded centre of the derived category.     

Singular Hochschild cohomology via the singularity category

We show that the singular Hochschild cohomology (= Tate–Hochschild cohomology) of an algebra A is isomorphic, as a graded algebra, to the Hochschild cohomology of the differential graded enhancement of the singularity category of A. The existence of such an isomorphism is suggested by recent work by Zhengfang Wang.

Some Remarks on Absolute Mathematics

We calculate Hochschild cohomology groups of the integers treated as an algebra over so-called field with one element. We compare our results with calculation of the topological Hochschild cohomology groups of the integers—this is the case when one considers integers as an algebra over the sphere spectrum.     

Hochschild Cohomology of Quiver Algebras Defined by Two Cycles and a Quantum-Like Relation II

We consider quiver algebras A _q over a field k defined by two cycles and a quantum-like relation depending on a nonzero element q in k. We determine the Hochschild cohomology ring of A _q and give necessary and sufficient conditions for A _q to have the finitely generated Hochschild cohomology ring.     

Low Dimensional Cohomology of Hom-Lie Algebras and q-deformed W（2, 2） Algebra

This paper aims to study low dimensional cohomology of Hom-Lie algebras and the qdeformed W(2, 2) algebra. We show that the q-deformed W(2, 2) algebra is a Hom-Lie algebra. Also,we establish a one-to-one correspondence between the equivalence classes of one-dimensional central extensions of a Hom-Lie algebra and its second cohomology group, leading us to determine the second cohomology group of the q-deformed W(2, 2) algebra. In addition, we generalize some results of derivations of finitely generated Lie algebras with values in graded modules to Hom-Lie algebras.As application, we compute all αk-derivations and in particular the first cohomology group of the q-deformed W(2, 2) algebra.     

On Maximal Diagonalizable Lie Subalgebras of the First Hochschild Cohomology

Let A be a basic connected finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field, with ordinary quiver without oriented cycles. Given a presentation of A by quiver and admissible relations, Assem and de la Peña have constructed an embedding of the space of additive characters of the fundamental group of the presentation into the first Hochschild cohomology group of A. We compare the embeddings given by the different presentations of A. In some situations, we characterise the images of these embeddings in terms of (maximal) diagonalizable subalgebras of the first Hochschild cohomology group (endowed with its Lie algebra structure).     

Hochschild cohomology and “smoothness” in monoidal categories

We introduce and investigate the properties of Hochschild cohomology of algebras in an abelian monoidal category M. We show that the second Hochschild cohomology group of an algebra in M classifies extensions of A up to an equivalence. We characterize algebras of Hochschild dimension 0 (separable algebras), and of Hochschild dimension ≤1 (formally smooth algebras). Several particular cases and applications are included in the last section of the paper.     

Higher string topology on general spaces

In this paper, I give a generalized analogue of the string topologyresults of Chas and Sullivan, and of Cohen and Jones. For afinite simplicial complex X and k 1, I construct a spectrumMaps(S^k, X)^S(X), which is obtained by taking a generalizationof the Spivak bundle on X (which however is not a stable spherebundle unless X is a Poincaré space), pulling back toMaps(S^k, X) and quotienting out the section at infinity. I showthat the corresponding chain complex is naturally homotopy equivalentto an algebra over the (k + 1)-dimensional unframed little diskoperad C_{k + 1}. I also prove a conjecture of Kontsevich, whichstates that the Quillen cohomology of a based C_k-algebra (inthe category of chain complexes) is equivalent to a shift ofits Hochschild cohomology, as well as prove that the operadC_*C_k is Koszul-dual to itself up to a shift in the derived category.This gives one a natural notion of (derived) Koszul dual C_*C_k-algebras.I show that the cochain complex of X and the chain complex of^k X are Koszul dual to each other as C_*C_k-algebras, and thatthe chain complex of Maps(S^k, X)^S(X) is naturally equivalentto their (equivalent) Hochschild cohomology in the categoryof C_* C_k-algebras. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification 55P48(primary), 16E40, 55N45, 18D50 (secondary).     

Hochschild cohomology of ring objects in monoidal categories

We define the Hochschild complex and cohomology of a ring object in a monoidal category enriched over abelian groups. We interpret the cohomology groups and prove that the cohomology ring is graded-commutative.     

Non-commutative André–Quillen cohomology for differential graded categories

This article is the companion of [G. Tabuada, Postnikov towers, k-invariants and obstruction theory for DG categories, J. Algebra, in press]. By inspiring ourselves in André–Quillen's work [D. Quillen, On the (co)-homology of commutative rings, in: Proc. Sympos. Pure Math., vol. 17, Amer. Math. Soc., 1970, pp. 65–87], we develop a non-commutative André–Quillen cohomology theory for differential graded categories. As in the classical case of commutative rings, there are derivations, square-zero extension, (non-commutative) cotangent complexes … . We prove that our cohomology theory satisfies transitivity, a Mayer–Vietoris's property, and is the natural algebraic setting for the k-invariants and obstruction classes constructed in [G. Tabuada, Postnikov towers, k-invariants and obstruction theory for DG categories, J. Algebra, in press].     

Hochschild Cohomology of <Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis>-Schur Algebras

We compute the Hochschild cohomology of any block of q-Schur algebras. We focus on the even part of this Hochschild cohomology ring. To compute the Hochschild cohomology of q-Schur algebras, we prove the following two results: first, we construct two graded algebra surjections between the Hochschild cohomologies of quasi-hereditary algebras because all q-Schur algebras over a field are quasi-hereditary. Second, we give the graded algebra isomorphism of Hochschild cohomologies by using a certain derive equivalence.
