Hochschild cochains with coefficients in the dual bimodule #
Let A be an algebra over a commutative semiring R and N an R-module. The linear maps
A →ₗ[R] N form an A-bimodule under (x • f) y = f (y * x) and (op x • f) y = f (x * y).
For N = R this is the algebraic dual A* with (x φ x') y = φ (x' y x). Whenever N is
itself an A-module, A →ₗ[R] N also carries the pointwise action (x • f) y = x • f y, so
the dual actions are scoped instances in TauCeti.DualBimodule, as for Mathlib's
TensorProduct.RightActions.
Currying the first argument (TauCeti.multilinearCurryFirstEquiv) identifies the N-valued
cochains in n + 1 arguments, the degree-n cochains on which the Hochschild coboundary b of
TauCeti.RingTheory.CyclicCohomology.Cochain acts, with the (A →ₗ[R] N)-valued cochains in n
arguments. Under this identification b is the coboundary δ with coefficients in the dual
bimodule: the face multiplying a₀ a₁ is the left action of a₁, and the cyclic face
(aₙ₊₁ a₀, a₁, …, aₙ) is the right action of aₙ₊₁. Thus the cochain complex underlying cyclic
cohomology is the Hochschild complex of A with coefficients in its dual.

Under currying of the first argument, the Hochschild coboundary b of N-valued cochains
is the Hochschild coboundary δ with coefficients in the dual bimodule A →ₗ[R] N.
Uncurrying the first argument turns the Hochschild coboundary δ with coefficients in the
dual bimodule into the Hochschild coboundary b of N-valued cochains.
