A characterization of the base-matroids of a graphic matroid

open access: yesContributions to Discrete Mathematics, 2010
Let M=(E,F) be a matroid on a set E and B one of its bases. A closed set θ⊆E is saturated with respect to B when |θ∩B|≤r(θ), where r(θ) is the rank of θ. The collection of subsets I of E such that |I∩θ|≤r(θ) for every closed saturated set θ turns out to be the family of independent sets of a new matroid on E, called base-matroid and denoted by MB.

The Chip Firing Game and Matroid Complexes [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2001
In this paper we construct from a cographic matroid M, a pure multicomplex whose degree sequence is the h―vector of the the matroid complex of M. This result provesa conjecture of Richard Stanley [Sta96] in the particular case of cographic matroids.

A chain theorem for internally 4-connected binary matroids

open access: yes, 2011
This is the post-print version of the Article - Copyright @ 2011 ElsevierLet M be a matroid. When M is 3-connected, Tutte’s Wheels-and-Whirls Theorem proves that M has a 3-connected proper minor N with |E(M) − E(N)| = 1 unless M is a wheel or a whirl ...

Tropical matroid homology

open access: yes, 2022
This thesis consists of independent projects on tropical matroid homology, graph recognition algorithms, and matroid classification. The first part provides an affirmative answer to a 2016 conjecture regarding matroid homology as well as sufficient ...

Internally 4-connected binary matroids with cyclically sequential orderings

open access: yes, 2009
We characterize all internally 4-connected binary matroids M with the property that the ground set of M can be ordered (e0,…,en−1) in such a way that {ei,…,ei+t} is 4-separating for all 0≤i,t≤n−1 (all subscripts are read modulo n).

A Miyaoka–Yau inequality for hyperplane arrangements in CPn$\mathbb {CP}^n$

open access: yesJournal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 113, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Let H$\mathcal {H}$ be a hyperplane arrangement in CPn$\mathbb {CP}^n$. We define a quadratic form Q$Q$ on RH$\mathbb {R}^{\mathcal {H}}$ that is entirely determined by the intersection poset of H$\mathcal {H}$. Using the Bogomolov–Gieseker inequality for parabolic bundles, we show that if a∈RH$\mathbf {a}\in \mathbb {R}^{\mathcal {H}}$ is ...

Adjoints of matroids

open access: yesAdvances in Applied Mathematics
We show that an adjoint of a loopless matroid is connected if and only if it itself is connected. Our first goal is to study the adjoint of modular matroids. We prove that a modular matroid has only one adjoint (up to isomorphism) which can be given by its opposite lattice, and proceed to present some alternative characterizations of modular matroids ...
