Rank functions on \((d+2)\)-angulated categories -- a functorial approach

We introduce the notion of a rank function on a \((d+2)\)-angulated category \(\) which generalises the notion of a rank function on a triangulated category. Inspired by work of Chuang and Lazarev, for \(d\) an odd positive integer, we prove that there is a bijective correspondence between rank functions defined on objects in \(\) and rank functions defined on morphisms in \(\). Inspired by work of Conde, Gorsky, Marks and Zvonareva, for \(d\) an odd positive integer, we show there is a bijective correspondence between rank functions on \( A\) and additive functions on \(( A)\), where \( A\) is endowed with the Amiot-Lin \((d+2)\)-angulated category structure. This allows us to show that every integral rank function on \( A\) can be decomposed into irreducible rank functions.
