Hanging-elements conjecture for the combinatorial derived matroid
Let be a matroid with set of circuits . For , let be the union of the circuits in , and let be the collection of dependent sets defining the combinatorial derived matroid . Hanging-elements conjecture. If and has an element outside , then
The statement is proposed as an analogue of a known result for the Oxley–Wang derived matroid, but the paper explains that the analogous claim for is insufficient and that new ideas are needed.
