Dec 10, 2021 at 15:04 comment added Pedro It is useful to note that if $X$ is binary, for example, then the free operad $F$ on $X$ has $F(2) = X(2)$, so this is a free $S_2$-module iff $X(2)$ is. It follows that you can pick counterexamples by hand. Similarly, $F(3)$ has dimension $3$, and so cannot be free as an $S_3$-module, $F(4)$ has dimension strictly less than $24$, etc: the answer follows purely by linear algebraic considerations. :)

May 26, 2016 at 2:37 comment added Gabriel C. Drummond-Cole What you say about colimits is not true because there are non-free maps between free S-modules. For instance, over Q, you can get the free operad on any quotient S-module of a free S-module by applying the free functor to the quotient map followed by a splitting back to the free S-module and then pushing out along the zero map.
May 25, 2016 at 22:15 comment added Denis Nardin To clarify, I think that S-module in this context means what is also known as "symmetric sequences" (a.k.a. functor on finite sets and bijections)
May 25, 2016 at 18:45 comment added emmagvr By "underlying S-module", the S-module obtained after apply to an operad the forgetful functor. And by "free" that the action of symmetric groups in this S-module is free.

May 25, 2016 at 18:28 comment added Ryan Budney What do you mean by "having an underling free S-module"?
