Hochschild cohomology parametrizes curved Morita deformations

We show that, if one allows for curved deformations, the canonical map introduced in [KL09] between Morita deformations and second Hochschild cohomology of a dg algebra becomes a bijection. We also show that a bimodule induces an equivalence of curved deformations precisely when it induces an equivalence between the respective 1-derived categories. These results, together with arXiv:2402.08660, solve the curvature problem for first order deformations.
