The aim of this article is to start a metric theory of homogeneous polynomials in the category of operator spaces. For this purpose we take advantage of the basic fact that the space of all m-homogeneous polynomials on a vector space E can be identified with the algebraic dual of the m-th symmetric tensor product . Given an operator space V, we study several different types of completely bounded polynomials on V which form the operator space duals of endowed with related operator structures. Of special interest are what we call Haagerup, Kronecker, and Schur polynomials - polynomials associated with different types of matrix products.
