Abstract: We determine a family of functors from a poset to abelian groups such that the higher direct limits vanish on them. This is done by first characterizing the projective functors. Then a spectral sequence arising from the grading of the poset is used. Also the dual version for injective functors and higher inverse limits is included. Graded posets include simplicial complexes, subdivision categories and simplex-like posets.

Review text

The author describes the projectives in the category of functors from a DCC poset to abelian groups. He defines a related condition, pseudo-projectivity, and proves that this condition is enough for the vanishing of the derived direct limits. This result is applied in order to deduce a generalized version of Whitehead's theorem for the pushout. The dual results for inverse limits are also considered.
