The Gerstenhaber algebra conjecture for singular chains and free loop homology

Let GG be a topological group such that MM is a classifying space of GG, and let S(G)S_*(G) denote the normalized singular-chain algebra of GG. Write LM=map(S1,M)LM=map(S^1,M) for the free loop space, and let dd be the dimension parameter of MM. The Gerstenhaber algebra conjecture. There is an isomorphism of Gerstenhaber algebras

H+d(LM)HH(S(G),S(G)).H_{*+d}(LM)\cong HH^*(S_*(G),S_*(G)).

This would identify shifted free loop homology with Hochschild cohomology for the chain algebra of the classifying group. The source presents this as an expected relationship; its status is not resolved in the supplied text.
