Abstract

The goal of this short paper is to study the convergence of the Taylor tower of the identity functor in the context of operadic algebras in spectra. Specifically, we show that if AA is a (1)(-1)-connected O\mathcal{O}-algebra with 00-connected TQ\mathsf{TQ}-homology spectrum TQ(A)\mathsf{TQ}(A), then there is a natural weak equivalence PP_\infty(id)AATQA\simeq A_\mathsf{TQ}^\wedge between the limit of the Taylor tower of the identity functor evaluated on AA and the TQ\mathsf{TQ}-completion of AA. Since, in this context, the identity functor is only known to be 00-analytic, this result extends knowledge of the Taylor tower of the identity beyond its "radius of convergence."
