Abstract:

We give an appropriate extension of the concept of “tower of surjections” to arbitrary inverse systems. We introduce a natural closed model structure (in the sense of D. Quillen) on the category of pro-(Simplicial Abelian Groups) and interpret our condition as the definition of fibrant object.
