The number of lines in a matroid with no U₂,n-minor

From MaRDI portal
Publication:491746



Abstract: We show that, if q is a prime power at most 5, then every rank-r matroid with no U2,q+2-minor has no more lines than a rank-r projective geometry over GF(q). We also give examples showing that for every other prime power this bound does not hold.
