Matroids over skew tracts provide an algebraic framework simultaneously generalizing the notions of linear subspaces, matroids, oriented matroids, phased matroids, and some other ``matroids with extra structure". A single-element extension…

Complemented lattices and uniquely complemented lattices are very important, not only in mathematics, but also in physics, biology, and even in social sciences. They have been investigated for a long time, especially by Huntington,…

The family of 2-level matroids, that is, matroids whose base polytope is 2-level, has been recently studied and characterized by means of combinatorial properties. 2-level matroids generalize series-parallel graphs, which have been already…

Recently, the relationship between matroids and generalized rough sets based on relations has been studied from the viewpoint of linear independence of matrices. In this paper, we reveal more relationships by the predecessor and successor…

A simple binary matroid is called claw-free if none of its rank-3 flats are independent sets. These objects can be equivalently defined as the sets $E$ of points in $\mathrm{PG}(n-1,2)$ for which $|E \cap P|$ is not a basis of $P$ for any…

A matroid is a machine capturing linearity of mathematical objects and producing combinatorial structures. Matroid structure arises everywhere since linearity is a ubiquitous concept. One natural way to obtain matroids is by considering…

The Tutte polynomial for matroids is not directly applicable to polymatroids. For instance, deletion-contraction properties do not hold. We construct a polynomial for polymatroids which behaves similarly to the Tutte polynomial of a…

Catalan numbers arise in many enumerative contexts as the counting sequence of combinatorial structures. In this work, we consider natural Markov chains on some of the realizations of the Catalan sequence. While our main result is in…

We study the realization spaces of matroids and hyperplane arrangements. First, we define the notion of naive dimension for the realization space of matroids and compare it with the expected dimension and the algebraic dimension, exploring…

Topological/perfectly-transmissive defects play a fundamental role in the analysis of the symmetries of two dimensional conformal field theories (CFTs). In the present work, spin chain regularizations for these defects are proposed and…

We describe a natural geometric relationship between matroids and underlying flag matroids by relating the geometry of the greedy algorithm to monotone path polytopes. This perspective allows us to generalize the construction of underlying…

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…

This paper investigates the theory of lattices, focusing on extending lattices relative to abstract classes, modular lattices, and torsion lattices. Definitions of type-1 and type-2 extending lattices are provided, along with their weakly…

We study the behavior of $h$-vectors associated to matroid complexes under weak maps, or inclusions of matroid polytopes. Specifically, we show that the $h$-vector of the order complex of the lattice of flats of a matroid is component-wise…

Recent progress in hadron structure calculations within lattice QCD is reviewed. Results on key observables such as the axial charge, the quark momentum fraction and the spin content of the nucleon are discussed with focus on open issues.…

In this paper we present a definition of oriented Lagrangian symplectic matroids and their representations. Classical concepts of orientation and this extension may both be thought of as stratifications of thin Schubert cells into unions of…

Sparse graphs and their associated matroids play an important role in rigidity theory, where they capture the combinatorics of generically rigid structures. We define a new family called {\bf graded sparse graphs}, arising from generically…

We show that every lattice path matroid of rank at least two has a quite simple coline, also known as a positive coline. Therefore every orientation of a lattice path matroid is 3-colorable with respect to the chromatic number of oriented…

We classify all matroids with at most 8 elements that have the half-plane property, and we provide a list of some matroids on 9 elements that have, and that do not have the half-plane property. Furthermore, we prove that several classes of…

Oriented matroids (often called order types) are combinatorial structures that generalize point configurations, vector configurations, hyperplane arrangements, polyhedra, linear programs, and directed graphs. Oriented matroids have played a…
