Abstract
For any 1-reduced simplicial set we define a canonical, coassociative coproduct on , the cobar construction applied to the normalized, integral chains on , such that any canonical quasi-isomorphism of chain algebras from to the normalized, integral chains on , the loop group of , is a coalgebra map up to strong homotopy. Our proof relies on the operadic description of the category of chain coalgebras and of strongly homotopy coalgebra maps given in math.AT/0505559.
