| Oct 8, 2010 at 22:54 | comment | added | Mike Shulman | That's not exactly right as stated -- to be a loop space X has to not only be an algebra over an $A_\infty$ operad, but must also be grouplike, i.e. $\pi_0$ of it is a group (under the monoid operation induced by the $A_\infty$ structure). Otherwise $\Omega B X$ is only a "group completion" of X. | |
