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

We introduce the notion of a rank function on a $(d+2)$-angulated category $\mathcal{C}$ 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 $\mathcal{C}$ and rank functions defined on morphisms in $\mathcal{C}$. 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 $\mathrm{}A$ and additive functions on $\mathrm{}(\mathrm{}A)$, where $\mathrm{}A$ is endowed with the Amiot-Lin $(d+2)$-angulated category structure. This allows us to show that every integral rank function on $\mathrm{}A$ can be decomposed into irreducible rank functions.
