Expand description

Matroid representability over GF(2), GF(3), and GF(q).

Checks whether a matroid can be represented as the column matroid of a matrix over a finite field. Provides excluded minor characterizations, exhaustive search for small matroids, and standard named matroids (Fano, dual Fano).

Enums§

RepresentabilityResult
Result of a representability check.

Functions§

column_matroid
Given a GF(2) matrix, extract its column matroid.
dual_fano_matroid
The dual Fano matroid F_7*.
fano_matroid
The Fano matroid F_7 (matroid of the Fano plane PG(2,2)).
has_minor
Check if a matroid has another matroid as a minor.
is_binary
Check if a matroid is representable over GF(2).
is_regular
Check if a matroid is regular (representable over every field).
is_representable_over_gfq
Check if a matroid is representable over GF(q) for prime q.
is_ternary
Check if a matroid is representable over GF(3).
standard_representation
Extract the GF(2) representation matrix in standard form [I_k | A].
