Applications of the change-of-rings spectral sequence to the computation of Hochschild cohomology

Abstract

We consider the change-of-rings spectral sequence as it applies to Hochschild cohomology, obtaining a description of the differentials on the first page which relates it to the multiplicative stucture on cohomology. Using this information, we are able to completely describe the cohomology structure of monogenic algebras as well as some information on the structure of the cohomology in more general situations. We also show how to use the spectral sequence to reprove and generalize results of M. Auslander et. al. about homological epimorphisms. We derive from this a rather general version of the long exact sequence due to D. Happel for a one-point (co)-extension of a finite dimensional algebra and show how it can be put to use in concrete examples.

The spectrum of units of algebraic $K$-theory

It is well known that the $[0,1]$ and $[0,2]$ Postnikov truncations of the units of the topological $K$-theories $\glone \KO$ and $\glone \KU$, respectively, are split, and that the splitting is provided by the ($\Z/2$-graded) line bundles. In this paper we give a similar splitting for the $[0,1]$-truncation of the units of algebraic $K$-theory, considered as a sheaf on affine schemes. A crucial step is to produce the splitting for $\glone K(\Z)$. Along the way we also give a complete calculation of the connective spectrum of strict units of $K(\Z)$ and $K(\F_\ell)$ for a prime $\ell$. Finally, we show that the units of algebraic $K$-theory do not split as a presheaf. In fact we show they do not even split pointwise.

Generalized Thom Spectra, Conjugate Stacks, and truncated Brown-Peterson Spectra

We propose a of definition conjugate stack for a class of suitable $\mathbb{E}_3$-$\mathrm{MU}$-algebras that includes the truncated Brown-Peterson spectra $\mathrm{BP}\langle n \rangle$ for all heights $n$. Then we calculate part of $\mathrm{BP}\langle n \rangle^{\mathrm{conj}}$ as a quotient stack in terms of Witt vectors. To perform this computation we study generalized Thom spectra and their relative Topological Hochschild Homology. We exhibit the Eilenberg-Mac Lane spectrum $\mathrm{H}\mathbb{F}_2$ as a $\mathbb{E}_3$-$\mathrm{MU}$-Thom spectrum, the $p$-local Eilenberg-Mac Lane spectra $\mathrm{H}\mathbb{Z}/p^n$ (except for $\mathrm{H}\mathbb{Z}/4$) and $\mathrm{H}\mathbb{Z}_{(p)}$ as $\mathbb{E}_3$-$\mathrm{MU}_{(p)}$-Thom spectra, and the connective complex K-theory spectrum $ku$ as $\mathbb{E}_1$-$\mathrm{MU}$-Thom spectra. We accompany these ``go" results with ``no-go" results that show these ``go" results do not admit $\mathbb{E}_{\infty}$-refinements.

A higher categorical approach to graded bivariant $K$-theories for Real $C^*$-algebras

We present an $\infty$-categorical refinement of classical $KK$-theory and $E$-theory for graded, $G$-equivariant for a locally compact second countable group $G$, Real $C^*$-algebras. As a consequence, we obtain a couple of fiber sequences connecting the different $K$-theory spectra, and explicitly analyse the induced endomorphisms on $K_0$-groups. We also answer precisely some folklore questions in the area. Among other things, we show that graded $KK$- and $E$-categories are not a Dwyer-Kan localization of graded $C^*$-algebras.
