Cyclic Homology of DG Coalgebras and a Kuenneth Formula

arXivmath/9806110MaRDI QIDQ6500934FDOQ6500934

Abstract: In this note we extend the cyclic homology functor, and in particular the periodic cyclic homology, to the category of DG (= differential graded) coalgebras. We are partly motivated by the question of products and coproducts in the cyclic homology of algebras, pioneered by A.Connes. As an application we show how one can start from the classical shuffle map in homological algebra and algebraic topology, interpreted by Husemoller, Moore and Stasheff as a morphism of DG coalgebras, and build a theory of products and coproducts in periodic and negative cyclic homology. One of the key ingredients is the idea of X-complex due to Cuntz and Quillen, suitably extended to DG colagebras.
