In recent years, to solve various problems in Algebraic Topology it has been necessary to consider more and more complicated structures on the singular chain complex C∗(X) of a topological space X and its homology H∗(X). One of the most difficult problem is the problem of calculating the homology groups of iterated loop spaces. The first steps toward solving this problem were made by J.F.Adams, [1]. To calculate the homology H∗(ΩX) of the loop space ΩX of a topological space X he introduced the notion of the cobar construction FK on a coalgebra K. Recall that a chain complex K is called a coalgebra if there is given a chain mapping ∇:K → K ⊗K satisfying the associativity relation
