Induced matroids [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the American Mathematical Society, 1971
There are several known results concerning how matroids can be induced from given matroids by a bipartite graph and the properties that are inherited in this way. The purpose of this note is to extend some of these results to the situation where the bipartite graph is replaced by an arbitrary directed graph.

The motivic zeta functions of a matroid [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the London Mathematical Society, 2019
We introduce motivic zeta functions for matroids. These zeta functions are defined as sums over the lattice points of Bergman fans, and in the realizable case, they coincide with the motivic Igusa zeta functions of hyperplane arrangements.

Splicing matroids

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Combinatorics, 2011
We introduce and study a natural variant of matroid amalgams. For matroids M(A) and N(B) such that M/(A-B)=N(B-A), we define a splice of M and N to be a matroid L on the union of A and B with L(B-A)=M and L/(A-B)=N. We show that splices exist for each such pair of matroids M and N; furthermore, there is a freest splice of M and N, which we call the ...

Advances on Matroid Secretary Problems: Free Order Model and Laminar Case [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The most well-known conjecture in the context of matroid secretary problems claims the existence of a constant-factor approximation applicable to any matroid. Whereas this conjecture remains open, modified forms of it were shown to be true, when assuming

Searching for a Connection Between Matroid Theory and String Theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We make a number of observations about matter-ghost string phase, which may eventually lead to a formal connection between matroid theory and string theory.

Symplectic Matroids [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Algebraic Combinatorics, 1998
A Coxeter matroid, also called WP-matroid, is a subset \(M\) of the set of cosets \(W/P\) of a Coxeter group \(W\) modulo a parabolic subgroup \(P\) such that \(M\) satisfies a certain maximality condition. More precisely, for each \(w\in W\) there is an element \(x\in M\) such that for all \(y\in M\) the element \(w^{-1}y\) precedes or equals \(w^{-1 ...

Submodular maximization with matroid and packing constraints in parallel [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium on the Theory of Computing, 2018
We consider the problem of maximizing the multilinear extension of a submodular function subject a single matroid constraint or multiple packing constraints with a small number of adaptive rounds of evaluation queries. We obtain the first algorithms with

Hierarchical Zonotopal Power Ideals [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2011
Zonotopal algebra deals with ideals and vector spaces of polynomials that are related to several combinatorial and geometric structures defined by a finite sequence of vectors.
