Highest weight categories and strict polynomial functors. With an appendix by Cosima Aquilino

Abstract: Highest weight categories are described in terms of standard objects and recollements of abelian categories, working over an arbitrary commutative base ring. Then the highest weight structure for categories of strict polynomial functors is explained, using the theory of Schur and Weyl functors. A consequence is the well-known fact that Schur algebras are quasi-hereditary.Date: December 22, 2015.

“…The category of finitely generated modules over a quasi-hereditary algebra is an example of a highest weight category and conversely, every highest weight category with finitely many simple objects is of this form [22,Theorem 3.6]. Highest weight categories are also discussed in Krause's article in this volume [45]: in particular, the category of strict polynomial functors admits the structure of a highest weight category. Moreover, work of Dlab & Ringel [26] shows that every finite dimensional algebra admits a 'resolution' by a quasi-hereditary algebra.…”

“…Proofs of these facts one can find in e.g. [1], [8], [10,11,14], [18]. In the second part of the section we introduce exact sequences, which will be crucial in the next sections.…”

“…Our approach is motivated by that of [17], where Krause used the Cauchy decomposition of divided powers [1,12] to describe the highest weight structure of categories of strict polynomial functors. As Krause mentions, this leads to an alternate proof of the fact that classical Schur algebras S k (n, d) are quasi-hereditary, which follows by a Morita equivalence.…”
