Deligne's conjecture on the operadic action on Hochschild cochains

About 32 years old · traced to

Let A\mathcal{A} be an associative algebra, let C∙(A,A)\mathcal{C}^\bullet(\mathcal{A},\mathcal{A}) be its Hochschild complex, and let C2C_2 be the little-disks operad in dimension two. Write Chains(C2)\mathsf{Chains}(C_2) for the operad of chains on C2C_2.

Deligne's conjecture. There exists a natural action of the operad Chains(C2)\mathsf{Chains}(C_2) on the Hochschild complex C∙(A,A)\mathcal{C}^\bullet(\mathcal{A},\mathcal{A}) for any associative algebra A\mathcal{A}.

This conjecture asserts that Hochschild cochains carry a natural structure governed by the chains on the little-disks operad. The supplied text does not state whether the conjecture has been proved or remains open.
