Matroid Pathwidth and Code Trellis Complexity
We relate the notion of matroid pathwidth to the minimum trellis state-complexity (which we term trellis-width) of a linear code, and to the pathwidth of a graph. By reducing from ...

Compression via matroids: a randomized polynomial kernel for odd cycle transversal
The Odd Cycle Transversal problem (OCT) asks whether a given graph can be made bipartite by deleting at most k of its vertices. In a breakthrough result Reed, Smith, and Vetta (Op...

Finding Branch-Decompositions and Rank-Decompositions
Abstract. We present a new algorithm that can output the rankdecomposition of width at most k of a graph if such exists. For that we use an algorithm that, for an input matroid rep...

Rank-Width and Well-Quasi-Ordering
Robertson and Seymour (1990) proved that graphs of bounded tree-width are well-quasi-ordered by the graph minor relation. By extending their arguments, Geelen, Gerards, and Whittle...

The homology of the cycle matroid of a coned graph
The cone ˆG of a finite graph G is obtained by adding a new vertex p, called the cone point, and joining each vertex of G to p by a simple edge. We show that the rank of the red...
