Base exchange properties of graphic matroids
نویسنده
چکیده
New base exchange properties of binary and graphic matroids are derived. The graphic matroids within the class of 4-connected binary matroids are characterized by base exchange properties. Some progress with the characterization of arbitrary graphic matroids is made. Characterizing various types of matroids by base exchange properties is e.g. important in invariant theory.

Structural properties of fuzzy graphs
Matroids are important combinatorial structures and connect close-lywith graphs. Matroids and graphs were all generalized to fuzzysetting respectively. This paper tries to study connections betweenfuzzy matroids and fuzzy graphs. For a given fuzzy graph, we firstinduce a sequence of matroids from a sequence of crisp graph, i.e.,cuts of the fuzzy graph. A fuzzy matroid, named graph fuzzy matro...
متن کاملUnique expansion matroids and union minimal matroids
The expansion axiom of matroids requires only the existence of some kind of independent sets, not the uniqueness of them. This causes that the base families of some matroids can be reduced while the unions of the base families of these matroids remain unchanged. In this paper, we define unique expansion matroids in which the expansion axiom has some extent uniqueness; we define union minimal ma...
متن کاملA characterization of the base-matroids of a graphic matroid
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 . In this paper we prove that a grap...
متن کاملQuasi-graphic matroids
Frame matroids and lifted-graphic matroids are two interesting generalizations of graphic matroids. Here we introduce a new generalization, quasi-graphic matroids, that unifies these two existing classes. Unlike frame matroids and lifted-graphic matroids, it is easy to certify that a matroid is quasi-graphic. The main result of the paper is that every 3-connected representable quasi-graphic mat...
متن کاملM-FUZZIFYING MATROIDS INDUCED BY M-FUZZIFYING CLOSURE OPERATORS
In this paper, the notion of closure operators of matroids is generalized to fuzzy setting which is called $M$-fuzzifying closure operators, and some properties of $M$-fuzzifying closure operators are discussed. The $M$-fuzzifying matroid induced by an $M$-fuzzifying closure operator can induce an $M$-fuzzifying closure operator. Finally, the characterizations of $M$-fuzzifying acyclic matroi...
