Samuel Lopes's Annual Report
Year:
Brief description of the research activities:
I focused my research on studying the Hochschild cohomology of Ore extensions, along with the associated cup product and Gerstenhaber bracket. Additionally, I investigated the combinatorial properties of certain normal ordering problems over algebras related to the Weyl algebra.
