Title: Excluding claws in binary matroids
Speaker: | Kazuhiro Nomoto |
Affiliation: | University of Waterloo |
Room: | MC 5479 |
Abstract: A simple binary matroid is claw-free if no rank-3 flats are independent. We discuss an exact structure theorem for such matroids and sketch its proof. This is joint work with Peter Nelson.
