Abstract

For every stable model category $\mathcal{M}$ with a certain extra structure, we produce an associated model structure on the pro-category pro-$\mathcal{M}$ and a spectral sequence, analogous to the Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence, with reasonably good convergence properties for computing in the homotopy category of pro-$\mathcal{M}$. Our motivating example is the category of pro-spectra.

The extra structure referred to above is a $t$-model structure. This is a rigidification of the usual notion of a $t$-structure on a triangulated category. A $t$-model structure is a proper simplicial stable model category $\mathcal{M}$ with a $t$-structure on its homotopy category together with an additional factorization axiom.
