On L-infinity morphisms of cyclic chains

Abstract

Recently the first two authors constructed an L-infinity morphism using the S^1-equivariant version of the Poisson Sigma Model (PSM). Its role in deformation quantization was not entirely clear. We give here a "good" interpretation and show that the resulting formality statement is equivalent to formality on cyclic chains as conjectured by Tsygan and proved recently by several authors.
