Matroid Applications and Algorithms

View through CrossRef
Matroid theory provides a set of modeling tools with which many combinatorial and algebraic problems may be treated. Generic algorithms for the resulting matroid problems can be used to solve problems from a variety of application areas including engineering, scheduling, mathematics, and mathematical programming. In this paper, we give an introduction to matroid theory and algorithms, and a survey of algorithmic applications. INFORMS Journal on Computing, ISSN 1091-9856, was published as ORSA Journal on Computing from 1989 to 1995 under ISSN 0899-1499.

A maximum linear matroid parity set is called a basic matroid parity set, if its size is the rank of the matroid. We show that determining the existence of a common base (basic mat...

For a matroid $M$ having $m$ rank-one flats, the density $d(M)$ is $\tfrac{m}{r(M)}$ unless $m = 0$, in which case $d(M)= 0$. A matroid is density-critical if all of its proper min...
