Eventual form conjecture for exponentially dense minor-closed matroid classes

Let M\mathcal{M} be a minor-closed class of matroids satisfying condition

ofTheoremof Theorem

for some prime power qq.

Eventual form conjecture. There exist an integer k0k\geq 0 and an integer dd with

0dq2k1q210\leq d\leq\frac{q^{2k}-1}{q^2-1}

such that

hM(n)=qn+k1q1qdh_{\mathcal{M}}(n)=\frac{q^{n+k}-1}{q-1}-qd

for all sufficiently large nn.

The paper presents this as a proposed generalisation beyond the GF(q2)\operatorname{GF}(q^2)-representable setting. It predicts that exponentially dense minor-closed classes have an eventually uniform growth-rate formula, but no resolution is supplied here.
