A universal rigid abelian tensor category
Abstract
We prove that any rigid additive symmetric monoidal category can be mapped to a rigid abelian symmetric monoidal category in a universal way. This yields a novel approach to Grothendieck's standard conjecture D and Voevodsky's smash nilpotence conjecture.
