Chataur–Menichi conjecture on the Gerstenhaber algebra of free-loop homology

About 10 years old · traced to

Let GG be a connected compact Lie group of dimension dd, let BGBG be its classifying space, and let LBGLBG denote the free loop space of BGBG. Write S∗(G)S_*(G) for the singular chain algebra of GG and HH∗(S∗(G),S∗(G))HH^*(S_*(G),S_*(G)) for its Hochschild cohomology. Chataur–Menichi conjecture. There is an isomorphism of Gerstenhaber algebras

H∗+d(LBG)\buildrel≅→HH∗(S∗(G),S∗(G)).H^{*+d}(LBG)\buildrel{\cong}\over\rightarrow HH^{*}(S_*(G),S_*(G)).

This conjecture identifies the shifted free-loop homology of the classifying space with the Hochschild cohomology of the chain algebra of the group, including their Gerstenhaber structures. The source gives no resolution of the conjecture.
