In this short note, we show that the cohomology of an algebra entwined with a coalgebra as defined by T. Brzeziński (J. Algebra 235 (2001), no. 1, 176--202; arXiv:math.RA/9909108) computes the Hochschild cohomology of the subalgebra of coinvariants when the extension is Galois.
We present a simple extension of the classical Hilton-Eckmann argument classically used to prove that the endomorphism monoid of the unit object in a monoidal category is commutative. It allows us to recover in a uniform way well-known results on the graded-commutativity of cup products defined on the cohomology theories attached to various algebraic structures, as well as some more recent results.
We construct a braided structure on the algebra of Kähler differential forms of a commutative algebra twisted by an endomorphism. This generalises the construction done in M. Karoubi, Quantum Methods in Algebraic Topology, see http://www.math.jussieu.fr/~karoubi, for topological purposes.
Let $A_n$ be the $n$-th Weyl algebra, and let $G\subset\Sp_{2n}(\C)\subset\Aut(A_n)$ be a finite group of linear automorphisms of $A_n$. In this paper we compute the multiplicative structure on the Hochschild cohomology $\HH^*(A_n^G)$ of the algebra of invariants of $G$. We prove that, as a graded algebra, $\HH^*(A_n^G)$ is isomorphic to the graded algebra associated to the center of the group algebra $\C G$ with respect to a filtration defined in terms of the defining representation of $G$.
We compute Hochschild homology and cohomology of a class of generalized Weyl algebras (for short GWA, defined by Bavula in St.Petersbourg Math. Journal 1999 4(1) pp. 71-90). Examples of such algebras are the n-th Weyl algebras, U(sl_2), primitive quotients of U(sl_2), and subalgebras of invariants of these algebras under finite cyclic groups of automorphisms. We answer a question of Bavula - Jordan (Trans. A.M.S. 353 (2) 2001 pp. 769 -794) concerning the generator of the group of automorphism of a GWA. We also explain previous results on the invariants of Weyl algebras and of primitive quotients.
