17.2 The Operadic Cotriple Construction 245<br />

17.2.1 Cotriple Constructions with Coefficients. The simplicial cotriple<br />

construction BΔ(P, P,A)<strong>of</strong>§13.3.1 is defined <strong>for</strong> an operad P in any base<br />

category C and <strong>for</strong> a P-algebra A in any category E over C. To <strong>for</strong>m a simplicial<br />

cotriple construction with coefficients in a right P-module M, we replace<br />

simply the first factor S(P) in the definition <strong>of</strong> §13.3.1 by the functor S(M)<br />

associated to M<br />

and we use the morphism<br />

BΔ(M,P,A)n =S(M) ◦ S(P)<br />

1<br />

◦···◦S(P) (A)<br />

n<br />

S(M) ◦ S(P) =S(M ◦ P) ρ −→ S(M)<br />

induced by the right P-action on M to define the face d0 : BΔ(M,P,A)n →<br />

BΔ(M,P,A)n−1. The construction returns a simplicial object in E, the underlying<br />

category <strong>of</strong> the P-algebra A.<br />

The construction can be applied to a P-algebra N in the category <strong>of</strong> Σ∗objects<br />

E = M, respectively in the category <strong>of</strong> right modules over an operad<br />

E = MR. Inthiscontext,wehaveanidentity<br />

BΔ(M,P,N)n = M ◦ P ◦n ◦N<br />

since the bifunctor (M,N) ↦→ S(M,N) is identified with the composition<br />

product <strong>of</strong> Σ∗-objects.Inthecase<strong>of</strong>aP-algebra in right R-modules, the<br />

right R-action on BΔ(M,P,N)n is identified with the obvious morphism<br />

M ◦ P ◦n ◦N ◦ R M◦P◦n ◦ρ<br />

−−−−−−→ M ◦ P ◦n ◦N,<br />

where ρ : N ◦ R → N defines the right R-action on N.<br />

In the case P = R = N, therightR-action ρ : M ◦ R → M determines<br />

a morphism <strong>of</strong> right R-modules ɛ : BΔ(M,R, R)0 → M so that ɛd0 = ɛd1.<br />

Accordingly, the simplicial right R-module BΔ(M,R, R) comes equipped with<br />

a natural augmentation<br />

ɛ : BΔ(M,R, R) → M,<br />

where M is identified with a constant simplicial object.<br />

If we also have M = R, then the construction returns a simplicial Ralgebra<br />

in right R-modules BΔ(R, R, R) together with an augmentation ɛ :<br />

BΔ(R, R, R) → R in the category <strong>of</strong> R-algebras in right R-modules. In this<br />

case, we retrieve the construction <strong>of</strong> §13.3.1 applied to the R-algebra in right<br />

R-modules <strong>for</strong>med by the operad itself A = R.<br />

In the remainder <strong>of</strong> this section, we assume that the base category is<br />

the category <strong>of</strong> dg-modules C = dgk Mod. In this setting, we can use
