Dyer-Lashof operations in the string topology of spheres and projective spaces (Q2484064)

Let \(M\) be a finite-dimensional closed manifold, \(C^*(M)\) be the differential graded algebra of singular cochains on \(M\) with coefficients in the prime field \(\mathbb{F}_2\) and \(HH^*(C^*(M); C^*(M))\) be the Hochschild cohomology of \(C^*(M)\) with coefficients in itself. It has been shown by \textit{R. Cohen} [Preprint (2004)] that the Gerstenhaber product on \(HH^*(C^*(M);C^*(M))\) can be identified with the loop product on the homology of the free loop space \(H_{*-d}(LM;\mathbb{F}_2)\). Here the author computes the 2-primary operations in \(HH^*(C^*(M); C^*(M))\) for four families of manifolds \(M\): spheres and real, complex and quaternionic projective spaces.
