Abstract:
We show that the Hochschild-Pirashvili homology on any suspension admits the so called Hodge splitting. For a map between suspensions $f\colon \Sigma Y\to \Sigma Z$, the induced map in the Hochschild-Pirashvili homology preserves this splitting if $f$ is a suspension. If $f$ is not a suspension, we show that the splitting is preserved only as a filtration. As a special case, we obtain that the Hochschild-Pirashvili homology on wedges of circles produces new representations of $Out(F_n)$ that do not factor in general through $GL(n,Z)$. The obtained representations are naturally filtered in such a way that the action on the graded quotients does factor through $GL(n,Z)$.
