Polynomial functors in $\text{Ver}_4^+$

Representation Theory 2026-03-16 v2

Abstract

We study polynomial functors in the incompressible category Ver4+\text{Ver}_4^+, which can be viewed as super polynomial functors in characteristic 2. Concretely, we classify additive, exact and simple polynomial functors, and describe how simple polynomial functors evaluate on arbitrary objects. We also determine which objects are not annihilated by any polynomial functors of a given degree and for which objects the symmetric group algebra acts faithfully via the braiding.
