On the string topology category of compact Lie groups (Q2453570)

The author attempts to answer a question which was posed by \textit{A. J. Blumberg, R. L. Cohen} and \textit{C. Teleman}. In their paper [Contemporary Mathematics 504, 53--76 (2009; Zbl 1195.57067)] the authors asked the following question: For which connected, closed, oriented submanifold \(N\) of a manifold \(M\) is the Hochschild cohomology of the chain-complex endomorphisms \({\Hom}_{St_M}(N,N)\) isomorphic to the homology of the free loop space of \(M\)? In this paper the author gives conditions and examples for which the above mentioned isomorphism holds. The main result of this paper states that if \(M\) is a compact, simply-connected manifold of dimension \(m\) which satisfies that the loop space homology of \(M\) is a finitely generated polynomial ring concentrated in even degrees and the map from the loop space homology to the homology of the free loop space of \(M\) is surjective then \(H_{{*}+m}(LM; k)\cong HH^{*} ({\Hom}_{St_M}(N,N)|k)\).
