    I wonder if anything links the Tambara modules that people in this area study, arising from

    • Daisuke Tambara. Distributors on a tensor category. Hokkaido mathematical journal, 35(2):379–425, 2006,

    with the Tambara functors of equivariant situations (apart from it being the same mathematician).

    It looks like polynomial functors provide one path between them. I guess ultimately it’s all about generalising linear algebra.

    Linked actegory.

    I didn’t check if the use here is consistent with that page.

    I’ve added

    and put it first, since it’s the only simple account I’ve seen of what optics are about.
