The structural conjecture for vertically 4-connected matroids with a modular 4-point line
Let be a simple, vertically -connected matroid with a modular -point line .
Structural conjecture. Either is ternary, for some the deletion is binary, or has an -minor and either an - or -minor.
This conjecture proposes that, among simple vertically -connected matroids with a modular -point line, the known ternary case and the case obtained by deleting one element to obtain a binary matroid account for all possibilities apart from the specified and non-Fano minor configuration. The surrounding discussion presents it as a likely classification and does not state that it has been resolved.
