A Sylvester-Gallai-type theorem for complex-representable matroids

Jim Geelen, Matthew E. Kroeker

The Sylvester-Gallai Theorem states that every rank- real-representable matroid has a two-point line. We prove that, for each , every complex-representable matroid with…

Excluding a line from -representable matroids

Jim Geelen, Peter Nelson, Zach Walsh

For each positive integer and each sufficiently large integer , we show that the maximum number of elements of a simple, rank-, -representable matroid with no…

Matroid fragility and relaxations of circuit hyperplanes

Jim Geelen, Florian Hoersch

We relate two conjectures that play a central role in the reported proof of Rota's Conjecture. Let be a finite field. The first conjecture states that: the branch-width…

On the complex-representable excluded minors for real-representability

Rutger Campbell, Jim Geelen

We show that each real-representable matroid is a minor of a complex-representable excluded minor for real-representability. More generally, for an infinite field an…

Infinitely many excluded minors for frame matroids and for lifted-graphic matroids

Rong Chen, Jim Geelen

We present infinite sequences of excluded minors for both the class of lifted-graphic matroids and the class of frame matroids.

A generalization of the Grid Theorem

Jim Geelen, Benson Joeris

A graph has tree-width at most if it can be obtained from a set of graphs each with at most vertices by a sequence of clique sums. We refine this definition by, for each…
