Abstract: | This paper is a sequel to the author's paper [Yos 98]. We construct some operations on categories and functors, for example, summation, multiplication, derivation, partial derivation, exponentiation, substitution. These operations are correspond to those of species. The main results of this paper are two theorems (Theorem 5.8, 6.5) which characterizing strict Krull-Schmidt categories(KS-categories). Especially, Theorem 6.5 states that for a skeletally small and locally finite category £ with finite coproducts and its full subcategory C, if the exponential formula E(t) = exp(C(t)) implies, under a technical assumption, that £ is a strict Krull-Schmidt category. Furthermore, we define the substitution T(S) of functors S : £---+ S and T : F--+ Seti, where S has finite coproducts. These operations satisfy formulas similar to such operations on the usual power series. There are some applications. |
