Formality of Chain Operad of Small Squares

Abstract

We prove that the chain operad of small squares is formal. This fact clarifies situation with the proof of M. Kontsevich formality theorem in the paper of the author math.QA/9803025, revised Sept 24. The formality of the operad follows quite easily from the existence of an associator.
