Excluding Kuratowski graphs and their duals from binary matroids

open access: yes, 2017
We consider some applications of our characterisation of the internally 4-connected binary matroids with no M(K3,3)-minor. We characterise the internally 4-connected binary matroids with no minor in some subset of {M(K3,3),M*(K3,3),M(K5),M*(K5)} that ...

Binary Matroids with Graphic Cocircuits

open access: yes, 2012
An excluded minor characterization for the class of binary signed-graphic matroids with graphic cocircuits is provided. In this report we present the necessary computations for the case analysis in the proof.

Foundations for a theory of complex matroids

open access: yes, 2012
We explore a combinatorial theory of linear dependency in complex space, "complex matroids", with foundations analogous to those for oriented matroids.

The structure of 2-separations of infinite matroids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Generalizing a well known theorem for finite matroids, we prove that for every (infinite) connected matroid M there is a unique tree T such that the nodes of T correspond to minors of M that are either 3-connected or circuits or cocircuits, and the edges

Infinite Matroids and Determinacy of Games [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Solving a problem of Diestel and Pott, we construct a large class of infinite matroids. These can be used to provide counterexamples against the natural extension of the Well-quasi-ordering-Conjecture to infinite matroids and to show that the class of ...

Axioms for infinite matroids

open access: yes, 2012
We give axiomatic foundations for non-finitary infinite matroids with duality, in terms of independent sets, bases, circuits, closure and rank.

Optimal cocircuits in regular matroids and applications

open access: yesJournal of Computational and Applied Mathematics, 1982
AbstractLet M = (E, C) be a regular matroid with circuit set H and cocircuit set H and let (H, +, ⪕) be an ordered group. To given partitions D = D+ ∈ D− for all D ϵ H and weighting functions ℓ,k: E → H optimale ê-cocircuits are defined by having a minimal value K(D+) − ol(D−ø ∗^e∗.It is shown that P as well as NP problems can be formulated by means of

Generalized spikes with circuits and cocircuits of different cardinalities

open access: yesAdvances in Applied Mathematics, 2023
We consider matroids with the property that every subset of the ground set of size $s$ is contained in a $2s$-element circuit and every subset of size $t$ is contained in a $2t$-element cocircuit. We say that such a matroid has the \emph{$(s,2s,t,2t)$-property}.

On the existence of asymptotically good linear codes in minor-closed classes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Let $\mathcal{C} = (C_1, C_2, \ldots)$ be a sequence of codes such that each $C_i$ is a linear $[n_i,k_i,d_i]$-code over some fixed finite field $\mathbb{F}$, where $n_i$ is the length of the codewords, $k_i$ is the dimension, and $d_i$ is the minimum ...
