Can anybody please explain in layman terms the super-vector spaces?

In summary, super-vector spaces are mathematical structures that extend the concept of vector spaces by incorporating both even and odd vectors. They allow for the combination of different types of elements, where even vectors behave like traditional vectors and odd vectors introduce additional properties. This framework is useful in various fields, including physics and mathematics, particularly in the study of supersymmetry and quantum mechanics.

Can you give us a reference where you have read this? Super usually refers to a graduation and involves a multiplication. Vector spaces don't have multiplications. I couldn't find the term Fibonacci category either.

Super vector spaces are easy to fine. I suppose you have already seen the wiki article
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_vector_space

Fibonacci categories are more difficult to find, but there are papers that use them and define them.

Since the OP hasn't returned to clarify where he got the terms from, I will close this thread now. If there is new information please send a message to a mentor and we might consider a reopening.
