Oct 9, 2020 at 18:53 comment added Tim Campion @DenisT. Excellent, thank you -- this would make a great answer! How does one see this / where can I read about it?
Oct 9, 2020 at 18:48 comment added Denis T Values of lim^1 are precisely cotorsion groups, i. e. ones with $Ext(\Bbb Q, G) = 0$. Values of lim^1 on a tower of f.g. groups are of the form $Ext(A, \Bbb Z)$ with A flat.
Oct 9, 2020 at 17:53 comment added Tim Campion @MaximeRamzi Thanks, I had some idea like that bouncing around in the back of my head, but I wasn't sure if there were finiteness / connectivity assumptions involved.
Oct 9, 2020 at 17:52 comment added Maxime Ramzi Question 3 is equivalent to Question 2, as any chain complex of abelian groups is formal (because $\mathbb Z$ is a PID) : there is a zigzag of quasi-isomorphisms $C\to \bigoplus_n H_n(C)[n]$, so the answer to 3 is yes if and only if the answer to 2 is yes for $H_0(C),H_1(C)$
Oct 9, 2020 at 17:40 comment added Tim Campion @JeremyRickard Ah, of course you're right. Maybe there isn't really an interesting question to ask at that level of generality...

Oct 9, 2020 at 17:37 comment added Jeremy Rickard For Question 4, can't you just take the constant inverse system with $D^{n,*}=\mathcal{D}^*$ for all $n$?
