Merino-Welsh inequalities for matroids with controlled lattices of cyclic flats

Kolja Knauer, Leonardo Martínez-Sandoval, Criel Merino

Beke, Csáji, Csikvári, and Pituk showed that the Merino--Welsh quotient can be arbitrarily large, so the multiplicative Merino-Welsh inequality…

An activities expansion of the transition polynomial of a multimatroid

Criel Merino, Iain Moffatt, Steven Noble

The weighted transition polynomial of a multimatroid is a generalization of the Tutte polynomial. By defining the activity of a skew class with respect to a basis in a multimatroid…

The critical group of a combinatorial map

Criel Merino, Iain Moffatt, Steven Noble

Motivated by the appearance of embeddings in the theory of chip firing and the critical group of a graph, we introduce a version of the critical group (or sandpile group) for combi…

Some heterochromatic theorems for matroids

Criel Merino, Juan José Montellano-Ballesteros

The anti-Ramsey number of Erdös, Simonovits and Sós from 1973 has become a classic invariant in Graph Theory. To study this invariant in Matroid Theory, we use a related invariant…

The structure of delta-matroids with width one twists

Carolyn Chun, Rhiannon Hall, Criel Merino +2

The width of a delta-matroid is the difference in size between a maximal and minimal feasible set. We give a Rough Structure Theorem for delta-matroids that admit a twist of width…

On zeros of the characteristic polynomial of matroids of bounded tree-width

Carolyn Chun, Rhiannon Hall, Criel Merino +1

We develop some basic tools to work with representable matroids of bounded tree-width and use them to prove that, for any prime power and constant , the characteristic polyn…
