Matroids over Skew Tracts [PDF]
European Journal of Combinatorics, volume 109, March 2023, 103643, 2020 Matroids over tracts provide an algebraic framework simultaneously generalizing the notions of matroids, oriented matroids, and valuated matroids, presented by Baker and Bowler. Pendavingh partially extended this theory to skew hyperfields and presented a new axiom system in terms of quasi-Pl\"ucker coordinates.
