Sep 3, 2014 at 15:32 comment added Zhen Lin @QiaochuYuan It seems to me that there is a lot of interest in enriched algebraic theories coming from the theoretical computer scientists.
Sep 3, 2014 at 13:10 comment added Dmitri Pavlov @QiaochuYuan: A lot of people thought about space-valued algebraic theories, see ncatlab.org/nlab/show(∞,1)-algebraic+theory. In particular, E_∞-spaces admit a particularly elegant description in terms of a (2,1)-algebraic theory, see ncatlab.org/nlab/show/…. In fact, this particular formulation of the Barratt-Eccles construction was one of the motivations for my question, so I will now add it to the main post.
Sep 3, 2014 at 6:40 comment added Qiaochu Yuan Properads and props still don't allow diagonal maps. You want a Lawvere theory. I don't know if anyone's thought about Lawvere theories valued in spaces.
Aug 31, 2014 at 10:45 comment added Dmitri Pavlov Indeed, it was stupid of me not to realize that the diagonal map cannot be expressed operadically! I edited the question to allow for generalizations of operads, e.g., properads, props, etc.
