Arithmetic on tikzmark points
Can I do arithmetic on tikzmark points? For example if I have tikzmark{A} and tikzmark{B} can I find their midpoint?

Welcome to TeX.SE! You can use calc for that. In general, the midpoint between a and b is given by ($(a)!0.5!(b)$). One slight subtlety is that you have to prepend pic cs: to the tikzmark coordinates, but not for tikzmarknode nodes. The following MWE illustrates this.
documentclass{article}
usepackage{tikz}
usetikzlibrary{tikzmark,calc}
begin{document}
Hellotikzmark{A} something elsetikzmark{B}.begin{tikzpicture}[overlay,remember picture]
draw[red,latex-] ($(pic cs:A)!0.5!(pic cs:B)$) -- ++(0,-1);
end{tikzpicture} tikzmarknode{H}{Hello} world and tikzmarknode{M}{marmots}!begin{tikzpicture}[overlay,remember picture]
draw[red,latex-] ($(H)!0.5!(M)$) -- ++(0,-1);
end{tikzpicture}
end{document}
