On finiteness properties of polynomial functors

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We study finiteness properties, especially the noetherian property, the Krull dimension and a variation of finite presentation, in categories of polynomial functors from a small symmetric monoidal category whose unit is an initial object to an abelian category (notion introduced in this general setting in the work http://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/hal-00851869 joint with C. Vespa). We give also an application to functors related to automorphisms of free groups.


In the present paper the author studies various finiteness properties associated to polynomial functors \(\mathcal{M}_{\mathrm{ini}}\to \mathcal{A}\) from small symmetric monoidal categories such that the unit is an initial object to abelian categories. One of the main results is the following: if \(\mathbf{S}(\mathbb{Z})\) is the category of free abelian groups of finite rank with split monomorphisms then the category of polynomial functors form \(\mathbf{S}(\mathbb{Z})\) to a Grothendieck category is locally noetherian (Theorem 6.25). The paper contains many other interesting results.
