Abstract

To any integer matrix AA one can associate a matroid structure consisting of a graph and another integer matrix ABA_B. The connected components of this graph are called bouquets. We prove that bouquets behave well with respect to the rr--th Lawrence liftings of matrices and we use it to prove that the Markov and Graver complexities of m×nm\times n matrices of rank dd may be arbitrarily large for n4n\geq 4 and dn2d\leq n-2. In contrast, we show they are bounded in terms of nn and the largest absolute value aa of any entry of AA.
