Proto-exact categories of matroids, Hall algebras, and \(K\)-theory



Abstract: This paper examines the category of pointed matroids and strong maps from the point of view of Hall algebras. We show that has the structure of a finitary proto-exact category - a non-additive generalization of exact category due to Dyckerhoff-Kapranov. We define the algebraic K-theory of via the Waldhausen construction, and show that it is non-trivial, by exhibiting injections pi^s_n (mathbb{S}) hookrightarrow K_n (mathbf{Mat}_{�ullet}) from the stable homotopy groups of spheres for all n. Finally, we show that the Hall algebra of is a Hopf algebra dual to Schmitt's matroid-minor Hopf algebra.
