    We discuss a new strategy for the computation of the Hopf-cyclic cohomology of the Connes-Moscovici Hopf algebra Hn\mathcal{H}_n. More precisely, we introduce a multiplicative structure on the Hopf-cyclic complex of Hn\mathcal{H}_n, and we show that the van Est type characteristic homomorphism from the Hopf-cyclic complex of Hn\mathcal{H}_n to the Gelfand-Fuks cohomology of the Lie algebra WnW_n of formal vector fields on Rn\mathbb{R}^n respects this multiplicative structure. We then illustrate the machinery for n=1n=1.Comment: Minor revisions to highlight the main result

    Hopf-cyclic homology and cohomology with coefficients

    Following the idea of an invariant differential complex, we construct general-type cyclic modules that provide the common denominator of known cyclic theories. The cyclicity of these modules is governed by Hopf-algebraic structures. We prove that the existence of a cyclic operator forces a modification of the Yetter-Drinfeld compatibility condition leading to the concept of a stable anti-Yetter-Drinfeld module. This module plays the role of the space of coefficients in the thus obtained cyclic cohomology of module algebras and coalgebras, and the cyclic homology and cohomology of comodule algebras. Along the lines of Connes and Moscovici, we show that there is a pairing between the cyclic cohomology of a module coalgebra acting on a module algebra and closed 0-cocycles on the latter. The pairing takes values in the usual cyclic cohomology of the algebra. Similarly, we argue that there is an analogous pairing between closed 0-cocycles of a module coalgebra and the cyclic cohomology of a module algebra
