I checked your problem with next LaTeX example:
------------- mathop.ltx ---------
\documentstyle[mathtime]{article}
\def\det{\mathop{\rm det}\nolimits}
\begin{document}

$$ \det A B = \det A \det B $$
\end{document}
-----------------------------------

But in my dvi output `det' is appearing in roman! So check out that you have
the most up-to-date version of mathtime.sty! There is one in:
	ftp.urc.tue.nl:pub/tex/MathTime

And also on ymir but I don't remember where.
