The Kadison–Ringrose cohomology conjecture
Proves that every bounded Hochschild cocycle of degree at least two on a complex von Neumann algebra, with coefficients in the algebra itself, has a bounded primitive. Equivalently, all higher bounded Hochschild cohomology groups vanish, resolving the Kadison–Ringrose conjecture.

Vanishing of higher bounded Hochschild cohomology
Sep 23, 2026·paper.pdf
We prove that every bounded Hochschild cocycle of degree at least two on a complex von Neumann algebra, with values in the algebra itself, has a bounded primitive. Together with the established degree-one inner-derivation theorem, this resolves the Kadison–Ringrose cohomology conjecture positively.
