Decomposing Frobenius Heisenberg categories
Abstract
We give two alternate presentations of the Frobenius Heisenberg category, , defined by Savage, when the Frobenius algebra decomposes as a direct sum of Frobenius subalgebras. In these alternate presentations, the morphism spaces of are given in terms of planar diagrams consisting of strands "colored" by integers , where a strand of color carries tokens labelled by elements of In addition, we prove that when decomposes this way, the tensor product of Frobenius Heisenberg categories, is equivalent to a certain subcategory of the Karoubi envelope of that we call the Karoubi envelope of .
