A generalization of the Tutte polynomials

Combinatorics 2019-08-16 v2

Abstract

In this paper, we introduce the concept of the Tutte polynomials of genus gg and discuss some of its properties. We note that the Tutte polynomials of genus one are well-known Tutte polynomials. The Tutte polynomials are matroid invariants, and we claim that the Tutte polynomials of genus gg are also matroid invariants. The main result of this paper and the forthcoming paper declares that the Tutte polynomials of genus gg are complete matroid invariants.
