For a multiplicative cohomology theory E, complex orientations are in bijective correspondence with multiplicative natural transformations to E from complex bordism cohomology MU. If E is represented by a spectrum with a highly structured multiplication, we give an iterative process for lifting an orientation $$MU \rightarrow E$$MU→E to a map respecting this extra structure, based on work of Arone–Lesh. The space of strictly commutative orientations is the limit of an inverse tower of spaces… Expand
