On the vanishing of \(H^ n(\mathcal A,\mathcal A^*)\) for certain \(C^*\)- algebras (Q1826081)

The authors prove two vanishing theorems of the norm continuous cohomology groups for certain classes of \(C^*\)-algebras with coefficients in the dual spaces. The first one is the theorem of the bounded Hochschild cohomology for a nuclear \(C^*\)-algebra or a \(C^*\)- algebra with no bounded traces. The result is derived from the vanishing theorem of cohomology of a properly infinite or an injective von Neumann algebra with coefficients in the predual. The latter is the theorem of the bounded cyclic cohomology for a \(C^*\)-algebra with no bounded traces.
