Factorization theorems for strong maps between matroids of arbitrary cardinality

open access: yesOpen Mathematics, 2016
In this paper we present factorization theorems for strong maps between matroids of arbitrary cardinality. Moreover, we present a new way to prove the factorization theorem for strong maps between finite matroids.

A Note on Ultrametric Spaces, Minimum Spanning Trees and the Topological Distance Algorithm

open access: yesInformation, 2020
We relate the definition of an ultrametric space to the topological distance algorithm—an algorithm defined in the context of peer-to-peer network applications.

Invariants of vector configurations [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2012
We investigate the Zariski closure of the projective equivalence class of a matrix. New results are presented regarding the matrices in this variety and their matroids, and we give equations for the variety.

Matroids on the Bases of Simple Matroids

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Combinatorics, 1981
Let M be a simple matroid (= combinatorial geometry). On the bases of M we consider two matroids S(M, F) and H(M, F), which depend on a field F. S(M, F) is the simplicial matroid with coefficients in F on the bases of M considered as simplices. H(M, F) has been studied by Björner in [1].

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.

Combinatorics of Positroids [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2009
Recently Postnikov gave a combinatorial description of the cells in a totally-nonnegative Grassmannian. These cells correspond to a special class of matroids called positroids.

Edge‐Length Preserving Embeddings of Graphs Between Normed Spaces

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, Volume 112, Issue 4, Page 491-506, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The concept of graph embeddability, initially formalized by Belk and Connelly and later expanded by Sitharam and Willoughby, extends the question of embedding finite metric spaces into a given normed space. A finite simple graph G = ( V , E ) is said to be ( X , Y )‐embeddable if any set of induced edge lengths from an embedding of G into a ...

Matroidal Structure of Rough Sets from the Viewpoint of Graph Theory

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, 2012
Constructing structures with other mathematical theories is an important research field of rough sets. As one mathematical theory on sets, matroids possess a sophisticated structure.

When is the graph of a random 0/1 polytope a clique?

open access: yesBulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 58, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract We study graph‐theoretic properties of random 0/1$0/1$ polytopes. Specifically, let Qpn⊆{0,1}n$Q_p^n \subseteq \lbrace 0,1\rbrace ^n$ be a random subset where each point is included independently with probability p$p$, and consider the graph Gp$G_p$ of the polytope conv(Qpn)$\operatorname{conv}(Q_p^n)$.

Applications of Matrices to a Matroidal Structure of Rough Sets

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, 2013
Rough sets provide an efficient tool for dealing with the vagueness and granularity in information systems. They are widely used in attribute reduction in data mining. There are many optimization issues in attribute reduction.
