The operad Lie is free

Quantum Algebra 2008-02-22 v1 Algebraic Topology Combinatorics

Abstract

We show that the operad Lie is free as a non-symmetric operad. Then we study the generating series counting the operadic generators, finding a recursive formula for its coefficients, and showing that the asymptotic density of the operadic generators is 1/e.
