The diagonal of the multiplihedra and the tensor product of A ∞ -morphisms

We define a cellular approximation for the diagonal of the Forcey--Loday realizations of the multiplihedra, and endow them with a compatible topological cellular operadic bimodule structure over the Loday realizations of the associahedra. This provides us with a model for topological and algebraic A-infinity morphisms, as well as a universal and explicit formula for their tensor product. We study the monoidal properties of this newly defined tensor product and conclude by outlining several applications, notably in algebraic and symplectic topology.
