Abstract: We study the quotient of $mathcal{T}_n=Rep(GL(n|n))$ by the tensor ideal of negligible morphisms. If we consider the full subcategory $mathcal{T}_n^{+}$ of $mathcal{T}_n$ of indecomposable summands in iterated tensor products of irreducible representations up to parity shifts, its quotient is a semisimple tannakian category $Rep(H_n)$ where $H_n$ is a pro-reductive algebraic group. We determine the connected derived subgroup $G_{n}subset{H}_n$ and the groups $G_{lambda}=(H_{lambda}^0{)}_{der}$ corresponding to the tannakian subcategory in $Rep(H_n)$ generated by an irreducible representation $L(lambda)$. This gives structural information about the tensor category $Rep(GL(n|n))$, including the decomposition law of a tensor product of irreducible representations up to summands of superdimension zero. Some results are conditional on a hypothesis on $2$-torsion in $p{i}_0(H_n)$.
