A decomposition theorem for the Hochschild homology of symmetric powers of a dg category

Abstract

We prove a conjecture by Belmans, Fu and Krug concerning the Hochschild homology of the symmetric powers of a small dg category $\mathcal{C}$. More precisely, we show that these groups decompose into pieces that only depend on the Hochschild homology of the dg category $\mathcal{C}$.
