Abstract: This paper examines the string topology category of a manifold, defined by Blumberg, Cohen and Teleman. Since the string topology category is a subcategory of a compactly generated triangulated category, the machinery of stratification, constructed by Benson, Krause and Iyengar, can be applied in order to gain an understanding of the string topology category. It is shown that an appropriate stratification holds when the manifold in question is a simply connected compact Lie group. This last result is used to derive some properties of the relevant string topology categories.

Review text

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 \(H_{{*}+m}(LM; k)\cong HH^{*} ({\Hom}_{St_M}(N,N)|k)\).
