This study aims to shed light on new (sub)classes of matroids originating from cluster algebras and investigate their properties. We focus on what we call cluster matroids and build some results on them. Then, we point out a relationship…

Consider a collection of points in the plane and the sets of slopes or directions of the lines between pairs of points. It is known that the algebraic matroid on the set of direction constraints between the points is equivalent to the…

In this thesis, we study nearly finitary matroids by introducing new definitions and prove various properties of nearly finitary matroids. In 2010, an axiom system for infinite matroids was proposed by Bruhn et al. We use this axiom system…

A matroid is uniform if and only if it has no minor isomorphic to $U_{1,1}\oplus U_{0,1}$ and is paving if and only if it has no minor isomorphic to $U_{2,2}\oplus U_{0,1}$. This paper considers, more generally, when a matroid $M$ has no…

Graduated locally finitely presentable categories are introduced, examples include categories of sets, vector spaces, posets, presheaves and Boolean algebras. A finitary functor between graduated locally finitely presentable categories is…

Adjacent dyadic systems are pivotal in analysis and related fields to study continuous objects via collections of dyadic ones. In our prior work (joint with Jiang, Olson and Wei) we describe precise necessary and sufficient conditions for…

Let $(P,\preceq)$ be a lattice, $S$ a finite subset of $P$ and $f_1,f_2,...,f_n$ complex-valued functions on $P$. We define row-adjusted meet and join matrices on $S$ by $(S)_{f_1,...,f_n}=(f_i(x_i\wedge x_j))$ and…

We showed in the first paper of this series that the generic $C_2^1$-cofactor matroid is the unique maximal abstract $3$-rigidity matroid. In this paper we obtain a combinatorial characterization of independence in this matroid. This solves…

A lattice L is slim if it is finite and the set of its join-irreducible elements contains no three-element antichain. Slim, semimodular lattices were previously characterized by G. Cz\'edli and E.T. Schmidt as the duals of the lattices…

This work proposes an alternative approach to the so-called lattice of embedded subsets, which is included in the product of the subset and partition lattices of a finite set, and whose elements are pairs consisting of a subset and a…

In this article, we study the convergence of algorithms for solving monotone inclusions in the presence of adjoint mismatch. The adjoint mismatch arises when the adjoint of a linear operator is replaced by an approximation, due to…

We study a matrix-based notion of matroid representation over local commutative rings obtained by replacing linear independence with modular independence. This construction always defines an independence system, though not necessarily a…

A graph is chordal if every cycle of length at least four has a chord. In 1961, Dirac characterized chordal graphs as those graphs that can be built from complete graphs by repeated clique-sums. Generalizing this, we consider the class of…

We determine when an antiinvolution on an adjoint semisimple linear algebraic group extends to an antiinvolution on a $J$-irreducible monoid. Using this information, we study a special class of compactifications of symmetric varieties.…

An infinite matroid is graphic if all of its finite minors are graphic and the intersection of any circuit with any cocircuit is finite. We show that a matroid is graphic if and only if it can be represented by a graph-like topological…

Continuing earlier investigations of restricted lattice walks in $\mathbb{N}^3$, we take a closer look at the models with infinite associated groups. We find that up to isomorphism, only 12 different infinite groups appear, and we establish…

We investigate an approach to matroid complexity that involves describing a matroid via a list of independent sets, bases, circuits, or some other family of subsets of the ground set. The computational complexity of algorithmic problems…

Let b(M) denote the maximal number of disjoint bases in a matroid M. It is shown that if M is a matroid of rank d+1, then for any continuous map f from the matroidal complex M into the d-dimensional Euclidean space there exist t \geq…

We call a matroid element "loose" if it is contained in no circuits of size less than the rank of the matroid. A matroid in which all elements are loose is a paving matroid. Acketa determined all binary paving matroids, while Oxley…

B\'ar\'any, Kalai, and Meshulam recently obtained a topological Tverberg-type theorem for matroids, which guarantees multiple coincidences for continuous maps from a matroid complex to d-dimensional Euclidean space, if the matroid has…
