We show that for pairs and of disjoint subsets vertices a graph , if is sufficiently large, then there exists vertex in such are two ways to reduce by vertex-minor operation removes while preserving the connectivity between . Our theorem implies an analogous Chen Whittle (SIAM J. Discrete Math., 28 (2014), pp. 1402--1404) matroids restricted binary matroids.

Schaller et al. (Research Article, 18 March 2011, p. 1404) proposed that carbon dioxide (CO(2)) released by the Central Atlantic Magmatic Province eruptions over periods of about 20,000 years led to substantial increases of up to 2000 parts per million (ppm) in the concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide (PCO(2)) near the Triassic-Jurassic boundary. Use of an atmosphere-ocean model coupled ...
