Has anyone seen a nice map of multiplicative cohomology theories?
I have seen lots of descriptions of this map in the literature but never seen it nicely drawn anywhere.
I could try to do it myself but I really lack expertise, hence am afraid to miss something or ...

Multiplicative Brown representability?
The Brown representability theorem can be convenient way to construct a spectrum. But to get a ring spectrum of even a very unstructured form seems to be harder. There's even currently a statement on ...

What are explicit obstructions to realizability of formal group laws as complex-oriented ring spectra?
Recall that a complex-oriented spectrum is a ring spectrum E with a map $MU \to E$.
Analogously, a ring with a (1-d commutative) formal group law is (represented by) a ring $R$ with a map $L \to R$ (...

Concrete pull-back calculation along H-space map
I am trying to calculate the pull-back of a cohomology class on the loopspace of the algebraic $K$-theory space $\Omega K(\mathbb{C})$ along the H-space map of $K(\mathbb{C}).$
Let $b_k\in \tilde{H}^{...
