Logarithmic Hochschild co/homology via formality of derived intersections

Abstract: We define log Hochschild co/homology for log schemes that behaves well for simple normal crossing pairs $(X,D)$ or toroidal singularities. We prove a Hochschild-Kostant-Rosenberg isomorphism for log smooth schemes, as well as an equivariant version for log orbifolds. We define cyclic homology and compute it in simple cases. We show that log Hochschild co/homology is invariant under log alterations. Our main technical result in log geometry shows the tropicalization (Artin fan) of a product of log schemes $X \times Y$ is usually the product of the tropicalizations of $X$ and $Y$. This and the machinery of \emph{formality} of derived intersections facilitate a geometric approach to log Hochschild.
