Matroids, delta-matroids and embedded graphs [PDF]
v2: We have split this paper into two. The later material of version 1 now appears in "On the interplay between embedded graphs and delta-matroids".

Dendriform structures for restriction-deletion and restriction-contraction matroid Hopf algebras [PDF]
We endow the set of isomorphism classes of matroids with a new Hopf algebra structure, in which the coproduct is implemented via the combinatorial operations of restriction and deletion.

Hierarchical Zonotopal Power Ideals [PDF]
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.

Graphic and Cographic Г-Extensions of Binary Matroids
Slater introduced the point-addition operation on graphs to characterize 4-connected graphs. The Г-extension operation on binary matroids is a generalization of the point-addition operation. In general, under the Г-extension operation the properties like

Minor-closed classes of binary functions [PDF]
Binary functions are a generalisation of the cocircuit spaces of binary matroids to arbitrary functions. Every rank function is assigned a binary function, and the deletion and contraction operations of binary functions generalise matroid deletion and ...

The highly connected even-cycle and even-cut matroids [PDF]
The classes of even-cycle matroids, even-cycle matroids with a blocking pair, and even-cut matroids each have hundreds of excluded minors. We show that the number of excluded minors for these classes can be drastically reduced if we consider in each ...

A laminar family is a collection $\mathscr{A}$ of subsets of a set $E$ such that, for any two intersecting sets, one is contained in the other. For a capacity function $c$ on $\mathscr{A}$, let $\mathscr{I}$ be $\{I:|I\cap A| \leq c(A)\text{ for all $A\in\mathscr{A}$}\}$.

A lattice point counting generalisation of the Tutte polynomial [PDF]
The Tutte polynomial for matroids is not directly applicable to polymatroids. For instance, deletion- contraction properties do not hold. We construct a polynomial for polymatroids which behaves similarly to the Tutte polynomial of a matroid, and in fact

Many 2-level polytopes from matroids [PDF]
The family of 2-level matroids, that is, matroids whose base polytope is 2-level, has been recently studied and characterized by means of combinatorial properties.

Gorenstein graphic matroids [PDF]
The toric variety of a matroid is projectively normal, and therefore it is Cohen-Macaulay. We provide a complete graph-theoretic classification when the toric variety of a graphic matroid is Gorenstein.
