Title: Cup Products on Hochschild Cohomology

Abstract: The Hochschild cohomology of an associative algebra $\Lambda$ possesses a cup product making it a graded commutative ring. I will give equivalent definitions of the cup product on Hochschild cohomology. There is a cup product formula on the Hochschild cohomology of a family of quiver algebras. I will present this formula and if time permits, I will discuss its application in connection to a finite generation conjecture.
