The G-homotopy theory is \"pieced together\" from the G/U-homotopy theories for suitable quotient groups G/U of G; a motivation is the way continuous group cohomology of a profinite group is built out of the cohomology of its finite quotient groups. In the model category of equivariant spectra Postnikov towers are studied from a general perspective. We introduce pro-G-spectra and construct various model structures on them. A key property of the model structures is that pro-spectra are weakly equivalent to their Postnikov towers. We discuss two versions of a model structure with \"underlying weak equivalences\". One of the versions only makes sense for pro-spectra. In the end we use the theory to study homotopy fixed points of pro-G-spectra.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2008-06-15T16:31:49.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "55P91", "18G55" ], "keywords": [ "equivariant homotopy theory", "pro-spectra", "model structure", "profinite group", "equivariant spectra postnikov towers" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2006math......9635F" } } }
