On recognising frame and lifted-graphic matroids
arXiv:1601.01791
Abstract
We prove that there is no polynomial with the property that a matroid can be determined to be either a lifted-graphic or frame matroid using at most rank evaluations. This resolves two conjectures of Geelen, Gerards and Whittle (Quasi-graphic matroids, arXiv:1512.03005v1).
