We consider the socle deformations arising from formal deformations of a class of Koszul self-injective special biserial algebras which occur in the study of the Drinfeld double of the generalized Taft algebras. We show, for these deformations, that the Hochschild cohomology ring modulo nilpotence is a finitely generated commutative algebra of Krull dimension 2.

This paper studies the Hochschild cohomology of finite-dimensional monomial algebras. If Λ = K/I with I an admissible monomial ideal, then we give sufficient conditions for the existence of an embedding of $K[x₁,...,x_r]/⟨x_a{x}_{b}fora\ne b⟩$ into the Hochschild cohomology ring HH*(Λ). We also introduce stacked algebras, a new class of monomial algebras which includes Koszul and D-Koszul monomial algebras. If Λ is a stacked algebra, we prove that $HH*\left(\Lambda \right)/\cong K[x₁,...,x_r]/⟨x_a{x}_{b}fora\ne b⟩$, where is the ideal in HH*(Λ) generated by the homogeneous nilpotent elements. In...
