Gross, Mansour and Tucker introduced the partial-dual polynomial of a ribbon graph and asked under what conditions such a polynomial is even-interpolating, odd-interpolating, or both. In this paper, we provide an answer to this open…

The partial-dual Euler-genus polynomial was defined by Gross, Mansour, and Tucker to analyze how the Euler genus of a ribbon graph changes under partial duality, a generalization of Euler-Poincar\'{e} duality introduced by Chmutov. The…

The mutually enriching relationship between graphs and matroids has motivated discoveries in both fields. In this paper, we exploit the similar relationship between embedded graphs and delta-matroids. There are well-known connections…

In 2009, Chmutov introduced the partial-duality for a ribbon graph $G$. Recently, Gross, Mansour and Tucker enumerated all possible partial-duals of $G$ by genus and introduced the partial-dual genus polynomial of a ribbon graph $G.$ This…

Partial duality is a duality of ribbon graphs relative to a subset of their edges generalizing the classical Euler-Poincare duality. This operation often changes the genus. Recently J.L.Gross, T.Mansour, and T.W.Tucker formulated a…

Matroid theory is often thought of as a generalization of graph theory. In this paper we propose an analogous correspondence between embedded graphs and delta-matroids. We show that delta-matroids arise as the natural extension of graphic…

We provide a unified framework in which the interlace polynomial and several related graph polynomials are defined more generally for multimatroids and delta-matroids. Using combinatorial properties of multimatroids rather than…
