On the Hochschild cohomology ring of tensor products of algebras

We prove that, as Gerstenhaber algebras, the Hochschild cohomology ring of the tensor product of two algebras is isomorphic to the tensor product of the respective Hochschild cohomology rings of these two algebras, when at least one of them is finite dimensional. In case of finite dimensional symmetric algebras, this isomorphism is an isomorphism of Batalin–Vilkovisky algebras. As an application, we explain by examples how to compute the Batalin–Vilkovisky structure, in particular, the Gerstenhaber Lie bracket, over the Hochschild cohomology ring of the group algebra of a finite abelian group.     

Koszul代数的Hochschild上同调环

基于Buchweitz等人对Koszul代数的Hochschild上同调环的乘法结构的细致分析,给出了Koszul代数的Hochschild上同调环的乘法本质上是平行路的毗连的一个充要条件,并由此重新证明了二次三角string代数的Hochschild上同调环的乘法是平凡的,从而改进了Bustamante的证明.     

Hochschild Cohomology Rings of Temperley-Lieb Algebras

The authors first construct an explicit minimal projective bimodule resolution(P, δ) of the Temperley-Lieb algebra A, and then apply it to calculate the Hochschild cohomology groups and the cup product of the Hochschild cohomology ring of A based on a comultiplicative map Δ:P → PAP. As a consequence, the authors determine the multiplicative structure of Hochschild cohomology rings of both Temperley-Lieb algebras and representation-finite q-Schur algebras under the cup product by giving an explicit presentation by generators and relations.     

Products in Hochschild cohomology and Grothendieck rings of group crossed products

We give a general construction of rings graded by the conjugacy classes of a finite group. Some examples of our construction are the Hochschild cohomology ring of a finite group algebra, the Grothendieck ring of the Drinfel'd double of a group, and the orbifold cohomology ring for a global quotient. We generalize the first two examples by deriving product formulas for the Hochschild cohomology ring of a group crossed product and for the Grothendieck ring of an abelian extension of Hopf algebras. Our results account for similarities in the product structures among these examples.     

Transfer in Hochschild Cohomology of Blocks of Finite Groups

We develop the notion of a cohomology ring of blocks of finite groups and study its basic properties by means of transfer maps between the Hochschild cohomology rings of symmetric algebras associated with bounded complexes of finitely generated bimodules which are projective on either side.     

Morita 型稳定等价下的模- 相对Hochschild (上) 同调

Ardizzoni, Brzeziński 和Menini 在研究代数的形式光滑性以及形式光滑双模时利用相对右导出函子引入了模- 相对Hochschild 上同调的概念. 本文利用相对左导出函子相应地给出模- 相对Hochschild 同调的定义, 讨论了在Morita 型稳定等价下, 代数的Hochschild (上) 同调、相对Hochschild (上) 同调以及模- 相对Hochschild (上) 同调三者之间的关系, 证明了模- 相对Hochschild 同调与上同调是Morita 型稳定等价下的不变量. 作为该结果的应用, 我们得到形式光滑双模与可分双模的一种构造方法, 并给出了通常意义下的Hochschild (上) 同调是Morita 型稳定等价不变量的一种新的证明.     

Tate–Hochschild cohomology for periodic algebras

This paper is devoted to studying the Tate–Hochschild cohomology for periodic algebras. We will prove that the Tate–Hochschild cohomology ring of a periodic algebra can be written as the localization of the non-negative part of the Tate–Hochschild cohomology ring.

     

Hochschild (Co)homology of Exterior Algebras

The minimal projective bimodule resolutions of the exterior algebras are explicitly constructed. They are applied to calculate the Hochschild (co)homology of the exterior algebras. Thus the cyclic homology of the exterior algebras can be calculated in case the underlying field is of characteristic zero. Moreover, the Hochschild cohomology rings of the exterior algebras are determined by generators and relations.     

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.     

Global Hochschild (co-)homology of singular spaces

We introduce Hochschild (co-)homology of morphisms of schemes or analytic spaces and study its fundamental properties. In analogy with the cotangent complex we introduce the so-called (derived) Hochschild complex of a morphism; the Hochschild cohomology and homology groups are then the Ext and Tor groups of that complex. We prove that these objects are well defined, extend the known cases, and have the expected functorial and homological properties such as graded commutativity of Hochschild cohomology and existence of the characteristic homomorphism from Hochschild cohomology to the (graded) centre of the derived category.

Twisted Bimodules and Hochschild Cohomology for Self-injective Algebras of Class A n , II

Up to derived equivalence, the representation-finite self-injective algebras of class A _n are divided into the wreath-like algebras (containing all Brauer tree algebras) and the Möbius algebras. In Part I (Forum Math. 11 (1999), 177–201), the ring structure of Hochschild cohomology of wreath-like algebras was determined, the key observation being that kernels in a minimal bimodule resolution of the algebras are twisted bimodules. In this paper we prove that also for Möbius algebras certain kernels in a minimal bimodule resolution carry the structure of a twisted bimodule. As an application we obtain detailed information on subrings of the Hochschild cohomology rings of Möbius algebras.     

The Hochschild cohomology of the quasi-entwining structure

We give a concept of quasi-entwining structure,and investigate the Hochschild cohomology of the quasi-entwining structure.We obtain the equivalent theorems on the Hochschild cohomology of the quasientwining structure.In particular,we get the isomorphism theorem between the Hochschild cohomology of coalgebra structures and the Hochschild cohomology of the dual algebra structures for the quasi-entwining structures of finite-dimensional algebras and coalgebras.     

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.     

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.     

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 abelian categories and ringed spaces

This paper continues the development of the deformation theory of abelian categories introduced in a previous paper by the authors. We show first that the deformation theory of abelian categories is controlled by an obstruction theory in terms of a suitable notion of Hochschild cohomology for abelian categories. We then show that this Hochschild cohomology coincides with the one defined by Gerstenhaber, Schack and Swan in the case of module categories over diagrams and schemes and also with the Hochschild cohomology for exact categories introduced recently by Keller. In addition we show in complete generality that Hochschild cohomology satisfies a Mayer-Vietoris property and that for constantly ringed spaces it coincides with the cohomology of the structure sheaf.     

On the Semisimplicity of the Outer Derivations of Monomial Algebras

We show that the Hochschild cohomology of a monomial algebra over a field of characteristic zero vanishes from degree two if the first Hochschild cohomology is semisimple as a Lie algebra. We also prove that first Hochschild cohomology of a radical square zero algebra is reductive as a Lie algebra. In the case of the multiple loops quiver, we obtain the Lie algebra of square matrices of size equal to the number of loops.
