Abstract

Let M be a matroid representable over GF(q) and S be a subset of its ground set. In this note we prove that S is maximal with the property that the critical exponent c(M|S; q) does not exceed k if and only if S is maximal with the property that c(M · S) ≤ k. In addition, we show that, for regular matroids, the corresponding result holds for the chromatic number. © 1984, Academic Press Inc. (London) Limited. All rights reserved.
