Bases in Orlik-Solomon Type Algebras
The Orlik-Solomon algebra of a matroid M is the quotient of the exterior algebra on the points by the ideal (M) generated by the boundaries of the circuits of the matroid. There i...

Algebraic Structures and Algorithms for Matching and Matroid Problems
We present new algebraic approaches for several wellknown combinatorial problems, including non-bipartite matching, matroid intersection, and some of their generalizations. Our wo...

The Bergman complex of a matroid and phylogenetic trees
We study the Bergman complex B(M) of a matroid M: a polyhedral complex which arises in algebraic geometry, but which we describe purely combinatorially. We prove that a natural su...

Confinement of matroid representations to subsets of partial fields
Let M be a matroid representable over a (partial) field and B a matrix representable over a sub-partial field . We say that B confines M to if, whenever a -representation matrix ...
