Abstract The purpose of this article is to embed the string topology bracket developed by Chas–Sullivan and Menichi on negative cyclic cohomology groups as well as the dual bracket found by de Thanhoffer de Völcsey–Van den Bergh on negative cyclic homology groups into the global picture of a noncommutative differential (or Cartan) calculus up to homotopy on the (co)cyclic bicomplex in general, in case a certain Poincaré duality is given. For negative cyclic cohomology, this in particular leads to a Batalin–Vilkoviskiĭ (BV) algebra structure on the underlying Hochschild cohomology. In the special case in which this BV bracket vanishes, one obtains an $e_3$-algebra structure on Hochschild cohomology. The results are given in the general and unifying setting of (opposite) cyclic modules over (cyclic) operads.

Abstract Kadeishvili's proof of theminimality theorem [T. Kadeishvili, On the homology theory of fiber spaces, Russ. Math. Surv. 35:3 (1980), 231–238] induces an algorithm for the inductive computation of an A ∞-algebra structure on the homology of a dg-algebra. In this paper, we prove that for one class of dg-algebras, the resulting computation will generate a complete A ∞-algebra structure after a finite amount of computational work.

Let B(X) denote the Banach algebra of all bounded linear operators on a Banach space X. Let t be an element of B(X), and let edenote the identity operator on X. Since the earliest days of the theory of Banach algebras, ithas been understood that the natural setting within which to study spectral properties of t is the Banach algebra B(X), or perhaps a closed subalgebra of B(X) containing t and e. The effective application of this method to a given class of operators depends upon first translating the data into terms involving only the Banach algebra structure of B(X) without reference to the underlying space X. In particular, the appropriate topology is the norm topology in B(X) given by the usual operator norm. Theorem 1 carries out this translation for the class of compact operators t. It is proved that if t is compact, then multiplication by t is a compact linear operator on the closed subalgebra of B(X) consisting of operators that commute with t.

AbstractThe dual immaculate functions are a basis of the ring QSym of quasisymmetric functions and form one of the most natural analogues of the Schur functions. The dual immaculate function corresponding to a composition is a weighted generating function for immaculate tableaux in the same way as a Schur function is for semistandard Young tableaux; an immaculate tableau is defined similarly to a semistandard Young tableau, but the shape is a composition rather than a partition, and only the first column is required to strictly increase (whereas the other columns can be arbitrary, but each row has to weakly increase). Dual immaculate functions were introduced by Berg, Bergeron, Saliola, Serrano, and Zabrocki in arXiv:1208.5191, and have since been found to possess numerous nontrivial properties.In this note, we prove a conjecture of M. Zabrocki that provides an alternative construction for the dual immaculate functions in terms of certain “vertex operators”. The proof uses a dendriform structure on the ring QSym; we discuss the relation of this structure to known dendriformstructures on the combinatorial Hopf algebras FQSym andWQSym.
